How Can I Help Prevent Skin Damage Until My Skin Toughens Enough To Tolerate It?
I have old injury, muscles torn from ribs. I use Montgomery straps to allow it to heal and prevent further damage. The problem is skin damage where they stick to my skin.. I am now trying to return to working after 14yrs being injured and find I need to use the straps to prevent damage.. I have tried may binder systems but this allows target (holding together affected muscles)... How can I help prevent skin damage until my skin toughens enough to tolerate it.

I recommend you use Ultraviolet light , it with thicken and strengthen your skin , notice that pressure will delay healing but cause better (proper) healing
also multivitamins can speed up healing
.Good Luck
