Last Night As I Was Turning over I Felt a Twinge on the Right Side of my Implant. Should I Worry?

Last night as I was turning over I felt a twinge on the right side of my breast implant. This morning it still hurts alittle. They look ok and it's not been 2 years since they were redone. It could be that I tore alittle of the lining from the implant when it become encapsulated. The pain is minimum but I am always in fear. This was my third time replacing them. Next time out they come completely.. I'm done.

"Twinge” after Breast Augmentation Concerning?

Although your concern is understandable, given your past history, your description does not sound too concerning to me. However, for the best advice and/or reassurance, you may want to follow-up with your plastic surgeon at some point. Best wishes.

If the pain is minimal and you have had no change in the appearance, I doubt there is anything to worry about. It is still best to see your surgeon for an exam. see video

Breast soreness

Without an exam, it is difficult to say why you would have tenderness. I would suggest seeing your surgeon to make sure everything is ok.
