HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, site of the wound is not given here, it may be infective boil and it may not be due to implantation of contraceptive device, I would advice to use Povidone Iodine ointment for this if this is the inflammation then Tab Ibuprofen 200 mg three times in day can be taken hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
