Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to side effects of the implant insertion. Negative side effects usually go away after a few months, once your body gets used to your implant. Meanwhile, I suggest using Ibuprofen for the pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
