Asked By:Llnieden in Sarasota, FL

I did push-ups at the gym on Friday and later found out that my arm position was incorrect. Saturday, I got a sharp pain in the right side of my chest, side/top of my right breast near my Armpit. It is still bothering me, not really painful but awkward, tingly and uncomfortable. I got breast implants 7 years ago. Do you think this is a muscle strain or pinched nerve? Or is there a complication with the implant?
