Is it normal to experience arm tingling/ numbness one week after breast augmentation?

Ashley332
I am seven days post breast augmentation. Silicone implants under the muscle. My left arm is having tingling/ numbing sensations. Sometimes I feel it in my right arm too but more severe in my left. I am worrried and it's a holiday weekend so I won't be able to reach anyone for 4 days. I don't have any bruising or redness. TIA
