Find the right bra to prevent back pain
Large-breasted women are more prone to back pain due to extra weight carried. Women whose size is c-cup or higher might experience pain due to the increased weight and size.There are ways to correct this and to properly fit and find the right bra is the first and most important step.
It is important to understand, though, that the weight of the breasts is not borne by the chest muscles. They are primarily carried and supported by the back and shoulders. A proper fitting bra will transfer the weight from the front tot eh top of the shoulders, so the entire body bears the weight properly.
There are specific, posture-correcting bras that should be looked at as well, but the first step is to ensure that you have the correct size for your body. Many women, some studies say over 50%, of women are not correctly sized.
