Anon and Joy - A lump in the breast after implantation can be many things, ranging from a water bubble, to fat necrosis to breast cancer. It is imperative to have the mass checked out and to determine exactly what has caused it. The first step would be the surgeon who did the implants. If you are not satisfied with the information that you get then by all means get a second opinion. While most breast cysts are benign, it's important to be absolutely sure you are getting appropriate follow up care. Let us know what you do, and what you learn, as it could help other women in the future.
Take care,
Pat
