Is It Likely That Trauma Caused My Capsulation?

badonkas
BA ~ 3 years ago and have had no problems at all with them until 6 months ago I had blunt force trauma incident across my chest. I thought I had fractured my sternum. I now have ? capsulation -evident in LHD and beginning in RHS. I have pain between 3/10 and 5/10 most days in both breasts -particulary LHS and regular neuro type pain..Ultrasound at time cleared rupture. I have silicone implants. Is it likely after an uneventful 2 plus years that the trauma caused the capsulation.?
