I have the contraceptive implant and I Keep getting really bad pins and needles and it is allways aching. I have had the implant for just over 2 years do you have any idea why this have started happening? It is very painfully and prevents me from working out? Thanks for your help
It is quite common after IUD insertion. Generally, it will settle by itself without any definite treatment. As of now, you can take analgesics like Mefenamic Acid for pain relief. If symptoms persist you can consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
