I have had my shunt since I was 2 months old I am now 32 ....I know as a child I used to play with the bubble as I called it. And from what my docs told me as a rule of thumb as long as the bubble popped back out it was ok. If it stayed depressed in then that could be a sign that it was not working properly. Such as it may have a blockage forming cause if it stays in then its not sucking fluid thru it. I hope this helps and if you have any other questions or issues please post back. Good L uck.
