Pain Without Swelling After Saline Breast Implants
I had Saline breast implants done 9 years ago. In the last few days, my right breast began to hurt. It just hurts; I can't explain it. It almost feels like it's pounding inside. It doesn't have any difference in the physical appearance, nor did I bump it either. What could be happening?

Make a diary about your breast pain
It would be useful to know more about the pain you are experiencing. In documenting pain, think PQRS: a) Pain: Is there a cyclical nature of the pain? Is it correlated with activity, menstrual cycle, etc; b) Quality: Is it burning, pounding, aching, stabbing?; c) Radiation: does the pain move around or point to another area?; d) Soothers/Stressors: What makes it feel better, worse?
Armed with that information, you should first seek an opinion from your Gynecologist or primary care...
