Breast Augmenation Aches at 3 Years Post Op?

February 14, 2011
Asked By:beach2 in Mesa

I had BA (saline unders) 3 years ago. Lately my left implant has been "achey." It's not necessarily painful but it feels like someone pushing on a bruise. Almost a dull, aching feeling. The feeling isn't constant but my chest aches if I push my implant toward the center of my chest or upward. (I also get that vibration feeling like two balloons rubbing together). I believe it is my muscle over the implant that aches or ribs underneath, but am not sure. Any ideas on what this could be? Thank you!
