Asked By:glansc in Glens Falls, New York

Female, age 46, 600cc gummy bear silicone implants placed with a lift, done in Miami 3/2017, wt. was 134 lbs. wt. now is 97 lbs. ht. 5ft. 1inch. I recently have been feeling a very sharp/tearing pain when turning from side to side in bed or when putting on shirts. It has left a lasting pain in the outer area of my breast from nipple out on the left breast but I have felt the same pain on the right breast as well. Could losing wt. have displaced my implants and causing this pain? Thank you.
