Is It Normal for a Implant to Be Moving to the Arm Pit?

August 1, 2012
Asked By:Sarhmor in Oklahoma

It's been two weeks since my surgery and my right implant is moving further in to my arm pit. I can also feel the implant through my skin near the incision which was done on the underside of my breast. Is this something I need to be concerned about or is this normal?
