Hi,
What I feel is this warm feeling is normal as body is trying to heal the area from where the pin is removed. Pain can be due to this as well. You need to undergo a post surgical physiotherapy rehabilitation for the elbow which should give you abundantly benefits to avoid pain and other symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
