Why Does Implanon Cause Skin Rash?
I got implanon a few days ago and I didn't leave the wrap on for 24hours but I left a bandaid on it but when I took the bandaid off it had this red color rash from the bandaid so took it off then the next day I put a different type of bandaid on . It didn't leave any rash but it has a line with bumps underneath the implanon

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to contact dermatitis due to the bandaid.
I case of redness you can use Calamine lotion for local application.
You should not be worried.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
