12 Days Post Op Explantation and Did Yoga Today...did I Damage my Healing Process?

Lo0417
i am 23 years old and had my saline implants (had them for 5 years) removed 12 days ago on Feb. 11. They were under the muscle and were removed through the same incision used for implanting (under my breasts). I have had a nearly painless recovery so far and my breasts already look better than i could have hoped for. However I am worried now because i went to a yoga class this morning and i am experiencing soreness and tenderness in my chest...is this normal soreness or did I damage my healing?
