What is this? What should I do? (photos)

jaraba1
after I got Botox done I noticed bruising. The doctor said its normal and will go away but it's been a week now and it's only getting worse. When I went to him he looked very scared and nervous and prescribed me with lidocaine, mupirocin, cephalexin 500 mg, and arnicare. He wasn't sure what it was but said it might be chicken pox. The bruising kept getting worse and blisters started to form along with burning pain. What is this? What should I do
