Maybe: Best to check in with your surgeon. The timing of surgery, ext of surgery +/- the method of reconstruction, and your healing status all need to be considered. If your have need released by your surgeon after postop check and cleared to exercise, just make sure you stay well-hydrated.

Yes: After surgery wearing a sports bra to prevent movement will help with the pain. Once you have healed you may wear whatever is comfortable for you.
