How Do I Know if Breast Implants Are Actually Under the Muscle?

June 3, 2010
Asked By:bubbled_clouds in Mobile

I had my surgies a lil over a year ago, my paper work got messed up & I got saline instead of silicone I paid for & was told they were put under the muscle, but I wonder if they are not. I can feel them, is there any way to tell? Also sometimes I have random pains in my breasts, kindy dull achey pains.
