A member asked:
I just recently had the implanon inserted in my arm a few days ago. is it normal to feel numbness in that arm and pain where the implant is?

Probably: An incision in made after local anesthesia so a little but of discomfort seems unsurprising. If it continues or looks infected schedule a follow up visit so the provider can check it.
