Answer: Is it safe for an Addison’s disease patient to get Dysport?
Antihistamines will have no affect on the longevity of your Dysport treatment. The product results will gradually fade 3 to 4 months after injection. Speak with your injector about any specific concerns.
Without knowing more details about your treatment it's difficult to say what may have occurred. You can try Benadryl (as long as you aren't allergic) and use cool compresses until you can reach your injector for an evaluation.
Yes, Dysport can have similar results to Botox to alleviate pain. Both can be used to help with TMJ pain and migraines, it is more preference on which you like better. It would be important to speak with your provider to further assess which one works better for you.
