![]() | Something is going on, but I don't know what? Well, something is going on with my right boob and I'm not sure what it is. I just noticed it this morning. I will try to describe it. If I tighten mychest on the lower portion of my boob there is a crease,(like something pulling). I had silicone partial unders and it is at the lower portion where there are still hard knots from surgery, (I guess from getting those 350 silicone implants through my areola it took some work). Anyway, i don't think it is cc, and I don't know if it is rippling? It does not show when I am relaxed. I have been massaging and still doing the compression excercises, but I am not a happy camper today. Does anyone have any ideas?

It may just be scar tissue, I have felt some tight spots under my breast too. It seems to be loosening up as time goes by. I'm not sure exactly if thats what your feeling. Have you read up on "Mondors Cord"? Is it like that?

Another girl on here had a same issue recently. She had unders with the aerola incision and got a 'dimple' when she flexed her muscle and it turned out that the stitches had been accidently attached to part of her muscle, which is why it only showed up flexed. It happened directly under one of her nipples. Since this only happens to yours when you flex, I'm guessing it might be something similar? I think massage to loosen the tissue was recommended. You should probably ask your PS about it though. Keep us updated! |

Im sorry to hear about the problem, it doesnt sound like CC. It sounds to me like the inner stiches for the pocket or something. Just ask your doctor next visit if it doesnt go away, but it doesnt sound serious. Let us know!

Thanks everyone for your replys. I will relax a bit easier until I can call the office on Monday. Berlin, do you know if the stiches disolved and the problem was resolved for the woman you were talking about? I will check through the posts and see if I can find it. I just don't know why it just showed up after nearly two months. |

I found the thread in question for you: http://www.justbreastimplants.com/fo...ghlight=dimple From what I remember, her issue with this didn't show up right away either. I hope it helps! |

Pat, Are you talking about displacement just when you flex your pec muscles? If you are, it's pretty normal for under the muscle placement. It looks like when you see guys trying to show off and make their pec muscles dance. |

It sounds like the normal distortion that can occur with implants placed under the muscle. If you're worried about Mondor's Cord, check out http://www.justbreastimplants.com/ga...ndors_cord.htm. Does this look like what you've got?

Nikki, It felt like mondors cord, but when I look at the pictures of that, it did not look the same. I bought a heavy duty back massager from Brookstone, and I have been putting it on the pulse setting and have been massaging it that way. It does look a bit better, and it has become much softer. The dimple is still there, but not as praminant. | |

Hmmm it's hard to say. It sounds like you are having muscle spasms. I would lay off the massager for a while and do it manually to see if it's just too much for your muscles. When do you see your PS again? Does the dimple go away or is it there all the time? | |

The dimple is there all the time, and it looks like something is pulling on it when it does the strange flex spasm thing. I did call my ps and I have an appointment for friday. The rn said she thinks it is just scar tissue, but if I wanted the ps to look at it they would get me in before my next scheduled appt. I bought the massager because I thought maybe I wasnt' massaging my boob enough to break up the scar tissue.And after I saw the dimple over the weekend, I thought more aggressiveness might be better. My ps did not show me how he wanted me to massage. At my last appointment, I brought up the scar tissue and knots that went along with it, and all he said was massage. |
