Implants can be ruptured from jet ski?

Asked By:PetiteBarbie in Australia, AU

I've had silicone breast implants for 10 month already. Some days ago I play jet ski and hit the water on my chest. I was wearing life jacket but still my chest hurt, numb and sore. Two days after, my hand get numb also and I have back pain. Is it a sign I get ruptured? Thanks for the answer.
