Is This Muscle Flexion Disorder or Dimpling from Breast Lump? (photo)

Jphilli
Hi I have had my silicon implants for 5 years (below muscle) I just noticed last night when I flex my pecs there is a dimpling from outside areola and goes horizontal for a couple inches... Can muscle flexion just appear years after implant or is it likely related to a breast lump that I have ( having Mamo & sono Friday )
