What Causes Itching Around Saline Implants?

I Have saline implants roughly 15 years old. Lately, one particular spot feels like possible a valve like it has flipped around. My Question: this area has recently started itch . Oddly it feels like no amount of topical lotion or scratching subsides. Could it be a sign of something wrong??

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi, Thanks for choosing HCM,
I had gone through your question.
Itching is due to allergy to either adhesive or chemical. Don't worry about it. Apply any Betamethasone and gentamycin cream with tab Levocetrizine 10 mg. daily night will subside the itching. It is nothing else. Hope this helps you.
