Does your port hurt - have to wear bra 24/7?

So, I am a larger breasted woman, 38DDD, if not DDDD, and let me tell you if I don't wear a bra 24/7 the area around my port hurts more, but there is a constant discomfort. It was put in almost a month ago, 7/11, and has been used twice, once for TCHP chemo 7/16 and once for fluids 7/21. I feel like the pull of my sagging breast, either from gravity or when I move hurts the area around it. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
