Itching And Blisters In Area Of Injection. Should I Worry?

I had my implant removed 2days ago. Before the nurse did it, she put some kind of liquid and injection on to my left arm then took implant out and covered with a plaster. I was told to take it off 2 days later then I realize it became itchy and there was 2 blisters on my arm( not where she cut to take implant out). Should I worry?

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Itching at the site of injection can be an allergic reaction.
You need to know what injection was given to you.
Please meet the same nurse and find out what she gave.

Dont worry its just a reaction, you will soon recover.

Take some antihistamine and apply a mild steroid cream.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.

you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.

If the condition persists even after the use of cream, please meet a dermatologist.
Thank you
