Why am I hearing popping/clicking in my three year old silicone implants?

kellysue21
I'm on a ski trip and noticed when I flexed my chest I hear a popping and clicking sound coming from my right breast. There's no pain and no bruising, all seems to be normal there. However, the sounds are very loud and sound as if they should be painful. I plan on skiing the rest of my trip, but I'm very nervous. Help!
