I was given no such advice, but I did find it more comfortable in that position. However to make things easier I let it rest in the usual position and used melonin pads, which are basically cotton wool squares with a shiny side that does not stick. I found these with tight pants to stop movement was best, but around the house I would wear my wife's soft dressing gown and no underwear. It hurt like hell for a while but does get better. good luck
