Can an Emergency Room Do Anything About Severe Swelling from Juvederm Injections?

sweetcaroline
I have severe swelling after juvederm injections in the corners of my mouth and my upper lip done at a clinic, 4 the 1 time. iced on and off since the 7 hrs ago that I had treatment. I also took ibuprofen (2 Advil) about an hr ago and an Antihistamine (Dayhist Allergy/Clemastine Fumarate 1.34mg ). I can barely close my mouth. I'm swollen around the nose area, up the jaw line and in the lymph nodes in my neck. The area they injected in the corners has lumps the size of a melon balls.
