Woman was left with a gaping hole in her chest she claims was caused by tight-fitting underwire bras

A woman claims she was left with a gaping hole in her chest thanks to tight-fitting underwire bras. Lynne McConnell, 51, started wearing the close-fitting bras 15 years ago, after being measured at a shop. She said they always felt too tight, but numerous shop assistants told her they were fine - and she kept wearing them until she noticed a lump in the middle of her chest. The pea-sized bump grew to a 4x4cm rock hard mass - directly over where the midpoint of the bra sits on her chest - in a matter of days and she sought medical help.
