Do you have to wear the under arm section?

No. Most of the time I do not wear the under arm strap. If you are going to be very active though, it helps.

I have one with and one without. The answer is no, you don't have to but sometimes when walking a fair distance between shots it is nice to have the stabilization that this provides. I suggest trying it both ways.
1180206
No, but it does keep the strap in place. It is recommended that you use it.

When I am scrambling, I do use the underarm sling. Otherwise I tuck it in because it is a little uncomfortable. If they used a tubular webbing which is softer it might not cut into your underarm.

I would say that if you take it off for a little while around every 20 minutes of use and let your arms cool down, it should not be a problem. With that said, it is probably more dependent on whether or not you are using it in an air conditioned area, or the temperature in the location you are in. I personally have not found heat to be of any real issue while wearing them.

Yes, you have to wear it. I send mine back because I wasn't happy with it. It didn't work well. Maybe it was a Monday version.

I don't find it to be uncomfortable--it does not dig into my armpits or anywhere else. But I do wear it over a shirt and do not wear it all day, so I could see it may possibly be an issue if you were to wear it all day.

If you are a female, yes (on your bisep). If male you should wear it on your forearm but it will be too small for your upper arm. I was not happy wearing it on my forearm.

Sure can. Its made for private parts, so underarms, legs and chest are even easier. Just have to practice getting the temperature right and not too hot.

If the brace is on properly it is comfortable. If you start to slump it does feel a little uncomfortable under the arms.

Yes to both questions. I am wearing now after finishing a mile walk. Sometimes I forget it is still on. Totally can't be seen under pants and you can walk and sit with it on normally. Hope this helped.

Yes, you slip into it like the half of a sleeveless jacket. Then you fasten it to your body with the attached Velcro straps under the arm and across the body. You don't have to hold it in place. I find it very practical that you can move and walk around wearing it. It will stay in place. - I like to add that it covers one side of your shoulder at a time, but you can turn it inside out to treat the other side of the shoulder. Hope this will explain it better.

how can you adjust the lower portion, how long should it be worn so that the pain under the arm pit can be tolerated?

under the arm is fine but not under armpit ,this area of the body will lose fat eventually and its a sensitive tissue. To tighten under arms I also recommend stretch arms out and do at least twenty circles backwards and then forward. Hope I helped. Enjoy!

No, your arms will always feel cool. I love them because I live in Atlanta. I usually wear them consistently into November and warm days in December. The next few days will be warm for February and I plan to wear them on my next runs.

I have not used this under my arms but it works well in other places. I wouldn't think you would need an antiperspirant

Never tried it underarms but it would be tricky. I use the Epilady and it works there for me.

Yes, you put it in with the sleeve on. The sleeve isn't meant to be removable.

It can be worn under pants. I find it easy to bend and walk around with. I have used a similar Ace brace that is much heavier and bulky. This one is lighter and after you have it on, you really don't notice that you are wearing it.

You could. It would leave an outline though. I wear mine over a tshirt but under an outer shirt.
