First: Wash your arm with soap and fresh hot water. Then you could try using tape and apply it over the area with the spines. Peel off the tape and the spines should free themselves from your skin. Sort of like waxing hair lol. Don’t use tweezers, that may drive the spines further into your skin.

If you keep Palyzoa coral, I might be slightly concerned about getting extremely minor palyzoa poisoning from the needles in your arm, but palies supposedly don’t secrete much toxin into the water column, if at all. Otherwise I think you’ll be fine if you clean off your arm really well.
