Is A Red Line At The Site Of Nexplanon Insertion Normal?

Got nexplanon a few weeks ago and there’s a red line the length of the bar on my arm still, is this normal? Also moved my arm the other day and felt like it got caught on something and then I touched my arm where the implant is and something moved back and everything was fine
