I have a bruise-like pain under right breast 4 years after silicone breast implants, under muscle. Any ideas?

Jessiann12
I had silicone breast implants (under the muscle) 4 years ago. About 6 months ago every time I would sneeze or cough really hard my muscle would contract. Now I have pain right under my breast to the lower inner quadrant. It feels like a bruise. It is constant for about 3 months and hurts worse when I wear a bra. The shape has not changed and I cannot feel any difference. Any idea?
