Did my 10 year old silicone breast implant pop when I tried to carry something heavy?

Asked By:realselfkelly in Los Angeles, California

Hello, First of all Id like to thank you for reading my concern. On February 15th, I tried to carry something heavy and suddenly I felt a pop on my left breast. I have a silicone breast implant, I had it done Feb 2014, it was done under the muscle and the incision is under the breast. After feeling the pop, since then, I know to myself that I have been having weird feeling on my left breast. I can say it is a sore feeling but not painful. Sometimes it goes away and sometimes it comes back.Help
