Asked By:lau_vl in San Diego, TX

I had silicone breast implants done 8 weeks and a half ago. Today my husband carry me on his back and I tried to hold myself with my arms for less than a minute because I felt a lot of pressure in my breast and I felt a very tiny pop in my left breast. Is it possible that it broke?
