What Could Be Causing Inflammation After Taking Anthestiria During A Gum Rebuilding?

I had an IV for anthestisa during a gum rebuilding for my gums. Everything was fine but 72 hours after the procedure I have swelling in the arm near the bend of my elbow. I ve had IVs before with no associated problems. What could be causing this inflammation?
