I have received 25 units of botox only in my forehead area every 3 months for the past 1 1/2 year. About six months ago the muscles in my neck started to get stiff and tighten up I was having trouble swallowing and saw the ENT after several exams stating everything is normal I continued to wonder what is causing the muscle tightness around my neck and more so since my last treatment 3 months ago. I recently read about the side effects of botox, Could this be a side effect? Thank you
