Am I feeling a fold or ripple in my gel implant?

Asked By:Hokie28 in Herndon, VA

Had BA 2012. Today, felt lump-inner bottom corner of R breast. Feels like small, squishy marble that moves & disappears when I push firmly, & pops back when I remove pressure. No visible rippling/change in outward appearance. I'm 30-have never felt a nodule/lump in breasts. Other threads lead me to believe it's a fold/ripple, however, I have silicone gel implants partially under the muscle. Thought folding/rippling was rare w/ these implants. Making appt with my PS, but wanted opinions here too.
