Hi,
Thanks for joining me on ehealthforum.

Do you have any other symptoms apart from the arm pain?
Do not massage the arm. Report to your healthcare provider/gynecologist to rule out any problem of blood clots after your surgery.
Do not delay, take medical help as early as possible.

All the best. Take care.
