I got a black eye from Botox injections that I got on April 29th. Is this normal and will it ever go away?

Asked By:cmjully10 in Coralville, IA

My bruise is not a small bruise next to my eye-I literally have a black eye underneath my eye. I called my injector earlier this week, and sent her a picture. She said she was unsure why my eye was bruised in that area, but recommended that I take Arnica, and put ice on the bruise. I have been doing both, and my black eye has not changed color or dissipated in any way since I got it. I have been getting Botox for years and have never bruised from it before. Is this normal?
