I just got botox for crow's feet. I was wary that the last injection was slightly under my eyes. During the night I could feel something was wrong as I felt pain if I blinked hard. My eyes were irritating me.Just woken up my right eye has swollen up under my eye and there's my swelling of left eye. I've tried to massage it down away from my bottom eyelid but it has just inflamed even more. I am scared it's going to get bigger as the botox settles in. If I go to the hospital can they take the product out?
