Botox - Ten Days Later and I Feel As Though I Have Been Kicked in my Right Eye. Should I Be Worried?

Asked By:London56 in London

I had Botox ten days ago for crows feet and forehead lines. Now when I screw up my eyes or blink hard the right eye feels bruised but I can't see a bruise of feel any pain if I touch the skin...it is a deeper pain like lower eye ache. I have not experienced anything like this before when having Botox injections and am wondering if it is related and if there is anything I should do about it?
