Did my doctor hit a nerve after injecting Voluma or could the product just be sitting in the wrong place?

I had voluma injected into cheeks 15 days ago. I am still experiencing discomfort in right cheek. I have many different feelings: pressure on cheek bone, it feels like it's going into my eye, a tingling sensation down to my nose, a burning Feeling, wet or hot on the inside, when I smile it feels like razor blades on the inside of cheek. Taking 600 mg Motrin for past 6 days. Doctor said there is no infection and the outside looks good. Will dissolving it take the discomfort away?
