Is it normal to hear a squeak when massaging ? (Photo)

mmaciel88Apr 4, 2016
i am almost 8 weeks post op , at week 7 when I was masaging i started hearing a strange noise like the implant rubbing , I inmediatly called my surgeon and she said it may be the implant touching a muscle , I do not feel pain out of the normal or any discomfort, but i am concerned about it, and I want a second opinion. Because that was not hapening at first few weeks it's all new for me!
