Surgeon Squeezed my Encapsulated Breast. 16 Months Post Op. Is This Ok?

Amandaloo
16 mtg postop.Dr.said he did not like how high my right breast was sitting or howhard it felt. He was squeezing the tighter breast and told me it was encapsulated with scar tissue? He was squeezing a little harder when I experienced a loud sound. I then felt very light headed. said he never had scar tissue break so easily. Should I have surgery performed to remove the capsule our just assume that the breaking took care if out? pain after the squeezing.could I be bleeding inside? 2nd aug/450cc.
