Is bruising coming to surface or could be it more serious?

Jasmino
I had breast implant revision to replace my 6 year old saline implants due to capsular contracture. I had silicone and larger however since day one my left side was very bruised and painful. Two weeks later I’m noticing it’s rock hard and a lump under the bruise which is painful. I contacted the on call nurse who wants to see me In a few days but said she’s worried it could be capsular contracture again but online I’ve read that takes longer to happen? Should I be worried?
