Possibly: Look first for signs of infection, swollen lymph nodes in your arm pit, the insertion site being red, swollen, hot or painful. If that is happening, get seen for an exam asap. Be sure you can still fell the implant. However, with any post procedure pain, seee the surgeon and have it examined.
