Pain in Breasts when Laying on Side... from Implants?

Thank you for the question.

It is possible that the discomfort you are experiencing is related to the breast implants;  I have found that if breast implants displace excessively they may place pressure on the  undersurface of the skin  causing discomfort.

Also, encapsulation may be a cause of discomfort at this stage ( although this is not necessarily related to position changes). 

I would suggest that you follow-up with a well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon;  the condition and positioning of your breast implants can be evaluated and corrected if necessary.

 I hope this helps.

There are so many different causes of pain in the breasts with breast implants. This could be muscle strain, capsular contractures, infection, to name a few.  You should go in for an evaluation ot your doctor.

I occasionally have patients years after breast agumentation having the same symptoms as you.  Have you started a new activity or sport which uses your arms and chest muscle?  This may be a cause. You may also be developing some hardness in the capsule around the implant.  However, if the pain continues, it is best to have your surgeon evaluate you.  Although rare, it is important to rule out any pathology, such as cancer, which may be causing the pain.
