female, 27, 5”3 and 9 stone and medium skin tone. I had 325cc implants over the muscle in September 2020. Recently, I noticed aching and numbness below my nipple, along with shooting pain. I can't lean forward or lie on my back without discomfort, and I now require a bra to sleep and perform daily activities. The affected breast appears visibly lower and is soft. My range of movement is limited, and I can't exercise even with a sports bra. Symptoms have worsened since July 2023, but the initial gurgling sound has stopped.
