I had a contraceptive implant removed and another one fitted today. My arm is in a lot of pain. It feels itchy in the area the implant was fitted and I have a slight tingling in my hand. I havent looked at where I had it fitted due to having a pressure bandage fitted for 48 hours. Is this normal or not?
Hello, It can be normal to have itching and some tingling after getting this sort of implant. If you develop pain or if there is pus and redness at the site when you remove the bandage you should see a doctor immediately. Regards
