Some fitting tips on arthritis and bras
Having chronic pain in the hands, fingers, or shoulders (or both) does not help to put on a bra with ease. It can become a daily challenge.
Many women having arthritis experience their bras turning into strangers to them. Not supporting them, but actually hurting them more.

And that’s a normal consequence because a bra that is not well-fitted can surely have a negative impact on the pain. Especially if you’re dealing with a condition like arthritis.

Getting on a conventional bra yourself may not work anymore. And what’s more, badly fitted bras can increase your pain. For example, if the pressure of your bra straps is cutting in shoulders.
As managing a bra can be difficult you would need one that is very easy to put on and take off.
Is a pull-on bra difficult for you? You can step in the very elastic Genie bra and pull it up from your feet up to your breasts! See Genie bra on Amazon
You might find a snap or zip front so much easier than a hook system.
▣ some women still manage their regular bras but fasten the bra band in front of them
▣ then turn the bra and slip the straps up over their shoulders
▣ some want a pull-on style, no hassle at all
▣ cannot lift a bra over your shoulders?
▣ some stretchy pull-on bras are easy to step in!
