Brave2499Mar 2, 2019
it's been 24 hours and I've been having a headache since last night I also feel discomfort and a little pain on the tip of my nose and it's swollen little red is it normal? Also when I was getting injected I felt the needle and it was painful as well I just don't know if maybe this is why I feel pain because I wasn't completely numbed when I had the procedure done
