Are corsets uncomfortable?
If you are in any pain you should not wear the corset. If you are not wearing the corset properly it is possible to be uncomfortable. Tingling, soreness and any numbness are all signs of improper wear. Waisted Couture corsets are made to fit the curvatures of the body while pulling in at the waist, there should be very little pressure and the cinching should be focused on the waist alone, not the entire torso. This is what creates the hourglass silhouette as opposed to the tubular look of most lingerie/bustier/corsets.
