call your surgeon now it could be a blood clot, there usually in the legs but can be in the arm

don't take any chances

best to check and see whats happening

it probably is nothing but check it out now

Hi, I would say call your doc - but I had shoulder pain (left side) and some tingling in the arm. It was apparently the positioning of my arm during surgery. Good luck
