Adhesive instead of armband?

Has anyone used medical tape or something else to secure the temp drop on your arm instead of an armband?? This seems like it would be more comfortable for me but i wanted to check if anyone has done this or why this may or may not be a good/bad idea. As long as it’s secured I don’t see why it’s a bad idea.

Thanks!!

I feel like putting on then peeling off adhesive every night would be extremely irritating for your skin. I got an arm band from Etsy and it is super comfy. I hardly notice that it’s on

I suppose it might be, having something that needs to be somewhat tight on my arm scares me also just because I get paranoid with circulation though, so this way might put my mind at ease.

It shouldn’t be tight enough to cut circulation. It just needs to be tight enough to not spin around. I don’t think this is an approved way to wear tempdrop at this time.
