I am 18 weeks post op 420 cc natrelle silicone. No issues with my left breast ( which was slightly larger) my right breast however has been making a "squeaking" or "rubbing" noise forweeks now.I had the muscle under that breast injected w a steroid to help relax it since it was fairly tight.That helped for about a week (sound went away) but now it is happening again.I still have some tenderness especially in the nipple on my right breast. What is this rubbing a result of and will it ever go away
