Could this pain 3 weeks after breast augmentation mean I caused a capsulated implant?

Asked By:Jojo3076 in Georgia, GA

I had a breast augmentation 3 weeks ago and today I went to the gym. Did treadmill, some squats and step ups. Later in the day my left breast started hurting (close to the nipple). I massaged it and it felt swollen, burning sensation and hard. During these 3 weeks the bottom part of my breast has been very sensitive and my nipples too. My concern is that I never massaged closed to the nipple only around the breast and I am wondering if I caused a capsulated implant. Should I worry?
