When it comes to this sort of thing and describing it, you just have to play it by ear and kind of learn when and how often it needs to be mentioned. Aya has a few characteristics (nowhere near as dramatic) that I try to describe to new people, but especially when RPing in public places you really don't want to mention it frequently.Â
Having it in the character description, mentioning it no new people or when appropriate when engaged in public RP, and gently correcting the situation when absolutely necessary should allow you to incorporate it without too much trouble. If someone tries to shake his hand, I would play it straight: they simply had not noticed his arm was missing. If they try to grab him by the arm... well... that may call for a whisper to clarify the situation
In terms of why he doesn't have a replacement, those can be myriad. From cannot afford it, to not being a good candidate (maybe there is extensive nerve damage beyond the missing structure), to simply not wanting it for psychological reasons.
