Suggest Treatment For Stiffness On Arm Due To Injury

some years back I was breaking apart a water pump from a car a piece of die-cast aluminum flew into my arm cutting an artery, I didn t receive medical treatment just held it tight until bleeding stopped. The piece of aluminum stayed in my arm about the size of a popcorn kernel. Do you think this might have anything do with my stiffness when I wake up?

YOU NEED TO BE SEEN AND EVALUATED
GO TO A ORTHOPEDIC DOCTOR, HAVE AN IMAGING AND LETS TAKE IT FROM THERE.
HE MIGHT WANT TO SEE AND EXAMINE YOUR PULSES AND YOUR MOTOR POWER
