Possible Off target side effects of Botox?
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Madam
I can certainly understand your concern.
I have worked through your query in detail.
As per your described symptoms, you possibly seem to have off target side effects of BOTOX TOXIN.
There seem to be few features of facial paralysis along with features of misfired route of drug administration.Forehead swelling is a consequence of this.
Many of these effects last from 6 weeks to 3 months and are self resolving.
Dry eye can be prevented with frequent instillation of eye drops of METHYL CELLULOSE.They act as lubricating agents.
The numbness will gradually recover.
The inappropriate folds take approximately 3 months to recover.
A short course of oral steroid medications may help.
Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these pills to you.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
