For the past couple of months, I’ve been having a lot or soreness around my implants, both above my breasts and on the sides. Wondering if others experience this. Was wondering if it is the implants moving out of the “pocket” it seems to feel better when I push in on them from the sides. So I thought perhaps I need a more supportive bra. I only wear little camisole-type bras from walmart.

Just looking for others’ experience before I contact my ps


Thanks :)

    I know you posted this some time ago, but I have similar feelings of discomfort with my implants. Mine are pre-pectoral. I often have feelings of tightness, pressure, pulling, and sometimes pain around both breasts.

    I also wear fairly light support bras and wonder if that contributes to the problems. I'll be making an appointment to see my PS soon to address some concerns, and also ask about possible displacement in one breast. In the meantime, I think I'll try wearing more supportive bras and see if that makes a difference.

    Good luck to you.

    Lynn, I just saw this post. I am 3 years out from exchange. I occasionally have pain in my implants as well. I think it might be from sleeping on it wrong. What did your PS say?
