I'm 3 weeks post-op....I went for a light jog....until I felt a small shift....Now, I can feel a small 'gas bubble' near my mammary fold. Maybe, it's my imagination and paranoia, but can one knock a breast implant out of place 3 weeks post-op? Thank you for you answer!

Answer: Displaced implant It is unlikely that your implant can be displaced with an activity such as jogging. If you have concerns then you should visit with your plastic surgeon ASAP

Answer: Shifting implants I would say its unlikely that you have "shifted" your implants but I would agree with others in saying that jogging only 3 weeks post operatively is a bit aggressive. The motion and bouncing from running so shortly after surgery may have causes a tear in your capsule or change in position of implants. I recommend you see your doctor to have an examination to make sure nothing has changed. Good luck.
