My 5 yr old implants are making rubbing /squeaky noises when I run or move the implant around, is this a sign they are ruptured?

Submuscular silicone implants under the muscle since 2012. They look and feel fine. Occasionally I experience a rubbery balloon feeling under one of the implants, when I exercise, suggesting that the implant may be rubbing against surrounding tissues or even my ribcage . This is especially noticeable when I move the implant around in circular movements or when I run . I can actually hear the implant rubbing and squeaking as it moves. Could this be an indication of a ruptured implant? Thank you.
