What Causes Itchy Bump On Arm While Having Implanon?

Hello. I ve had my implanon in for about 8 months. Tonight my arm was itchy, I took off my jacket and saw a bump that almost looked like a blister, but with out smooth sides. I am not sure if I need to go to the ER or if I can wait til the morning. It s a bit itchy but not painfully so.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern the device that you have and the lesion are nothing to do with each other, itching and blister formation could be due to some insect bite just wait for some time it will be fine on its own just for more inflammation and infection, hope this information helps, take care
