Is The Displacement Of Implanon Harmful?

I have the implanon in my left arm earlier today I hit my arm right in the spot the implanon was inserted. Later my arm is still hurting pretty bad and noticed my implanon moved about 2 inches down my arm. Is that ok or do I need to get it checked out?

Hi dear.Thanks for writing on HCM.
I were to reexamine the site where implanon is inserted to assure that there is proper delivery.I would suggest you to practice other means of contraception till you meet your GP else it might result in contraceptive failure.
Hope this helps.
