1 Week After Botox to Forehead and Frown Lines my Brows Have Started to Droop, Is this Likely to Get Worse?

flower 000
It is 6 days since i had botox on my forehead a nd between brows,under my brows appear swollen a bit and drooped a small bit,is this likely to get worse,also if botox sets in a few hours why can you get drooping brows weeks later.I stayed out the gym but want to go back tomorrow,but im afraid lifting weights and cardio will cause drooping,as i read in one report to avoid the gym for two weeks,also i use lots of force lifting weights,please advice thanks
