Although I have not been able find an official answer on this, I am confident that you are right. Personally I have very little fat on my arms and I can feel the needle that jabs in my arm hit the muscle. mince I had to take a sensor off my arm after a few days, due to sharp shooting pains whenever my muscle tensed. When I did removed it I noticed that the prong that goes in my arm was straight, which would have meant it got inbedded in the muscle (all other prongs have curved round to a 90 degree angle. if you’re still getting pains, and no longer using the sensors, I’m sure the pain will pass before long. If your arms are really thin and you think the needle may have hit bone, then it could take a few days longer, but your body will repair.</blockquote>
