Hello, I’ve had my breast implants for almost two years ago. About a month ago I was exercising and I pulled my chest muscle doing a pull up. I felt a pulling sensation accompanied by a burning feeling throughout my chest and arm on my right side. Ever since then that side has been sensitive and my right breast feels a bit different like I can feel the implant on my chest wall beforehand I couldn’t feel anything. My left breast actually feel regular like there is nothing there.

Good morning,
They are close, but you were also close preop- it does not appear to me that you have synmastia, and I regularly repair synmastia cases- two yesterday as a matter of fact.
Since your tissue stretches, I would suggest going with a smaller implant and placing it behind the muscle with using Alloderm for extra support as well and an internal suuture bra. You may do very well.
Greetings,
Sorry to hear about your late seroma. Looks like you need to return to your plastic surgeon for further evaluation and care.
You may have a combination of issues and drainage by a trained radiologist with appropriate studies could be a good starting point. Have your plastic surgeon...
