Default Weird Squishy sound

Hey yall. I had a distal shunt revision on tuesday(12/2) of this week. I came home wednesday. I've been really sore because the tubing from the bottom of the valve down to the pleural cavity was all changed out and re-routed. Anyways, starting today, I've noticed that when I turn my head(its still stiff and sore) or when I press down on my neck at the base of the valve where about the middle of my incision is, it makes kind of a squishy sound, like when you press on a soaking wet towel. Its really weird. After hearing that for the first time I pressed lightly around the valve and it does that there too. Anyone had this happen or heard of it? I'm not sure what to do. I have an appt with my neuro in about 2 weeks to get my stitches out so I can always ask him then, but I wanted to know if anyone here had any ideas! Thanks guys! ~Melissa~
