My arm is stinging when i move it near the insertion of my nexplanon i got it done yesterday. is this normal, also it's bumpy and feels a little weird?

Probably OK: I wouldn't worry at this point about pain at the site of insertion. If it begins to swell, has blood or pus draining from it, the pain increases, you develop fever or you have trouble moving your arm, I'd certainly have it looked at by your doctor.
