Deflated Breast Implant from Carrying 9 Lbs?

Two weeks after I got breast implants, I was carrying a bag that weighed 9 lbs. I had a very bad/painful muscle spasm and immediately felt my right breast shrink. I was called in a muscle relaxer, but it didn't seem to help. My doctor says that I have a larger version of what I had before, which isn't a good enough answer for me. Today, my right breast is at least a half cup smaller than my left; it's also higher and harder. If I lay on my back, it sits stright up, where my left breast falls naturally to the side. Any advice?

Amanda, a deflated implant does not move up AND becomes... more

Hard to tell; See your surgeon

Hello, You could have an implant position change or a rupture. I would see your surgeon to have this sorted out ASAP. This is not something we will easily figure out without examining you.
