Injected with Dysport for Masseter (2x40units) and orbicularis oculi 200 units,caused after 7 days, very thick saliva which causes breathing problems especially during a night, which puts strenght to the lungs and heart. Also like the throat is sqeezed. All the time there is some mucus on the back of the tongue. Already had some swallowing problems prior to this that caused liquid choking. Can anyone help and recommend product or drug that I can ask for. My doctor has no clue. Thak you!
