Forearm stings after blood test

I had a painful blood test on Wednesday, it really stung and sent a stinging sensation down my forearm which I’ve never experienced before.
It seemed fine afterwards as the pain faded away quite quickly but since Thursday morning I’ve been experiencing the same stinging sensation on the top of my forearm when I use that arm.
It’s like a hot pinching sting usually when I bend the arm or pick something up.
Has anyone experienced this and did it stop/sort itself out? It’s making me wince and stop what I’m doing. Really want to avoid GP if possible as it seems so minor at the moment.

I had a blood test last week too but didn’t feel it and nothing afterwards.

Could you ring 111 or pop and ask the pharmacist for advice?
