:( Knuckle under skin ... Anyone else?

So last night I just noticed a spot on my left breast (outer lower pole) where if I sweep my fingers over my outer breast I feel a small dip and bump. If I push it goes back but returns if I release. I'm
panicked because from what I've read a fold could mean having to reoperate as this could compromise the implant and thin out your skin from the rubbing of the protrusion.
Anyone felt this "knuckle" before?

Day 4 Post Op!

The swelling is much improved although now they're looking more coconut-like as. the edges are more defined (hope the fluffing begins soon!)
I have noticed they feel a little more firm and slightly sore in the evenings. It's hard to cut back on the activity level with 3 kids but I'm doing my best not to jeopardize the healing process. I'm learning to tolerate the surgical bra as it actually pushes my breasts slightly more together.
I have my follow up appointment with Dr. Gervais next Monday and hopefully the tape comes off (if my incisions are healing well)
Hope everyone is healing well! xo
