I got my breast implants removed 1 year ago (they were Allergan Inspira implants placed above the muscle). Ever since I got these I had pectoral muscle and chest pain. Really hoped these would disappear after getting them out but it still hurts a lot. It's muscle related pain (tissues are ok), my whole chest is on fire. Whenever my breasts move it hurts like hell. So basically everytime I walk, let alone running or doing any exercise..It's excruciating. What could be the problem? Please help. :(
