One week post op I plunged a toilet, and now I'm a bit sore. Did I over do it and strain anything? (photos)

Asked By:Tokyorose84 in Milwaukee, WI

I had silicone breast implants one week ago. I haven't had to much pain the past few days just swelling. Last night my kids stopped up the toilet and I had to use pressure to unclog it with a plunger. Now my breasts are sore, and my right side of my right breast is pretty firm. Could I have caused any damage?
