I had Natrelle Breast Implants put under the muscle, 4.5 months ago. Did jumping into water damage my implant?

Asked By:Bgirl4 in Humble, TX

A few days ago I was vacationing and (idiotically) decided to jump out of a tree into a lake. Hitting the water knocked the wind out of me and then afterwards I felt like my right implant was much looser feeling than before. My thinking is that I likely knocked the implant lose from scar tissue because it looks normal, but I'm not sure. Should I make and appointment with my surgeon, or is that probably all that happened?
