Felt A Sharp Pain in Right Breast, Could It Be Pulled Muscle Or Something Worse?

I am 29 years old. I had breast augmentation 9 years ago. They are saline and above the muscle. I had tubular breast. I have been playing Roller Derby (a full contact sport) for 3 years now. I had a game about a week ago and felt fine till about an hour later. I reached for something and had an extremely sharp pain in my right breast. It has not gotten any better. It hurts only when my breast moves. For example lying down or leaning forward. It does not hurt to breath or laugh. No other changes

Pain after exercise with breast implants

Roller blading is an extreme sport and I'm not surprised that you have some pain occasionally. I don't believe this has anything to do with the implants, but more likely an aching muscle, or possibly a tear. See your doctor and get a more formal diagnosis and treatment plan.

Sharp Pain

Without examining you it's difficult to tell but most likely you strained your pectoralis muscle. I would recommend that you be examined by your doctor to make sure that all is OK.

Breast pain

It's certainly possible for you to pull a muscle in your chest...but this likely has nothing to do with your implants if they are over the muscle. It was unusual to place saline implants over the muscle nine years ago although there were certainly some specific situations where it was advantageous. Are you really sure your implants were placed over the muscle? If indeed your implants are under the muscle then there may be other reasons for your discomfort. I'd... more
