I received Voluma injections 6 days ago. I have quite a bit of swelling. Is this normal?

Asked By:Pat1955 in Lansing, MI

My jaw on one side is very stiff and sore. I haven't been able to chew without a lot of pain and can't open my mouth very wide. It's not red or hot and I don't have a fever. I have been applying heat and it seems to be a little better but not significantly. Is this normal?
