Hi. I slipped in the kitchen and along with a chipped bone in my elbow, I ended up rupturing the capsule that holds the left breast implant in place. Not the implant itself but the scar tissue that formed over the years. The implant is now falling through that part of the capsule making it too "loose" and quite painful. The only relief I get is to hold it up and towards the center or by wearing a tight bra 24/7. Going to have an Mri to rule out a muscle tear but the Dr believes it's just capsule
