I got Botox injections yesterday and today I have a red pimple looking bump on my forehead. Any suggestions?

Asked By:beaniebaby2323 in Ontario, CA

I thought it was a zit so I picked it, bad idea.. Now I think it may have been a injection site from yesterday's Botox. I had Botox injected to raise my brow and prevent lines in my forehead.Should I seek emergency medical attention? I also have a headache. This has never happened and I have been getting Botox for 7 years. Thanks
