Asked By:srn0128 in Pasadena, Texas

I've obviously had some issues with my left breast, however now my right one is crazy too. I am 3 months post opp and my implant is sitting really high. They aren't hard so to say, however when I bend, there is a hard spot. It is sore and firm but not completely hard. Thanks for the help.
