I had Saline breast implants 10 years ago. They are under my muscle and have been very happy with the results. One week ago, I began noticing a sharp pain at the base (where the bottom of your bra sits) of my breast. It can travel up towards my nipple. It is most uncomfortable when I bend over without a bra. It is more tolerable when I wear a bra. This pain is only on one breast. What would you suggest I do? What do you think it could be?

Answer: Breast pain Thanks for your inquiry, but without an exam it is hard to advise. It is best you be seen by a plastic surgeon and be examined.

Answer: Breast Pain Years after Breast Augmentation To be on the safe side I would have your physician evaluated you, get a physical exam and possibly and MRI.Having some pains years after your surgery are not unheard of, but before you can attribute it to just nerve pain or muscle strain, it would be wise to rule out other important issues.Hope that helps.

Answer: Sharp Pain 10 Years After Saline Breast Implants. It's difficult to say without examining you in person, but occasional aches and pains after breast augmentation is not abnormal. Most likely it is not related to the breast implants, but is usually caused by activities that you have been performing in the past several days (lifting, working out, etc). I would start by treating conservatively with ibuprofen/Tylenol, ice, rest. If you symptoms don't go away completely, then I would plan to see your plastic surgeon for an examination.
