Hello,
I have gone through your queries and understood your concern. In my opinion that must be a side effect of the implanon and mostly they will resolve by time but if it persists and too severe then you need to consult your treating doctor to check the place of the implanon and they will decide whther to keep or remove it. Thank you.
