Last week, my lover squeezed my right breast very hard. I have no bruises and it's not sore, but I've noticed that the lymph nodes (or ligaments?) on the right side of my breast are protruding more than on the left breast. This may have been the case all along, but I'm wondering if he could have done damage to my breast glands or tissues or even ruptured an implant (I should note that my silicone implants are 1.5 years old). I'm out of the country for two months so I can't see my surgeon.
