Arm Numbness, Taken Plan B, Started Period Early

Hello. i m 18. i took a plan b pill two weeks ago and for a week ive been having really bad side effects. But those are fading now and i started my period a little early. As soon as i thought i was getting better, my left arm started to get numb ever since last night. I ve been reading things online and some of my answers were a blood clot heart attack . can you please give me some answers.

although blood clot and heart attack are possibilities they would be extremely uncommon at your age. it is much more likely that you have nerve compression from the hormonal pill's swelling side effects but if you smoke cigarettes and have a history of migraine blood vessel disease is a possibility. if it is bothering you ten you should get it checked out
