Is Pain Throughout Face,head Related To Post Botox Injection?
I have had pain in my right temple radiating down to my jaw for over a week now. I thought it may have come from a Botox injection around the eye area since the pain started the same day out of nowhere. It almost feels like little knots throughout the right side of my face and head.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it is related to the injection since the pain started the same day after the injection was given.
Botox would cause contraction of the tissues and this could contribute to a headache and tension in the skin.
Since the pain is ongoing, it would be best to see your doctor for an assessment to that treatment can be inititated.
I hope this helps
