I was worried about that, but surprisingly it didn’t. Of course, I was careful not to get it wet or sweaty. It did seem tight, and I eventually removed the elastic ace bandage material occasionally to let it breathe a bit, then re-wrapped it a little looser. I also trimmed a bit of the white felt like material from around my toes and around my upper calf. I was happy to finally get it off! Although I was a bit nervous what it would look like after two weeks. Everything was fine though. I would recommend a small fan to blow on the dressing to try and dry it a bit. That really helped.
