Pain after Botox above eyebrow. What could be causing this? What can I do to help it? My provider has no explanation (Photo)

Thank you for your question. It is possible to experience some pain around the injection site after a Botox treatment due to some swelling post-treatment that could have caused temporary nerve inflammation. I would guess that if you are not having any other symptoms, you can simply wait for the pain to subside. It should resolve in the next few weeks. If it worsens or you develop other symptoms like swelling, contact your doctor right away for an in-person follow-up. 

This is a great question and It is common to have slight discomfort after Botox injections especially if you developed some swelling in the area.  It could be one of the injection sites that is tender and should improve over the next few weeks. 

It is possible to develop temporary pain after a Botox treatment to the face.  This can also occur after filler injections to the face.  This issue normally resolves by itself over time and no treatment is usually needed.  I would wait another couple of weeks and see if it improves.  

I'm sorry to hear of the discomfort you're having after Botox treatment. Typically pain after injection is temporary.  Headaches can persist for a few weeks in some cases.  Your symptoms should improve with time.

There are some rare side-effects with botox. Temporary pain and headaches are common. Did you have severe bruising in that area right after the injection? Usually, the pain is temporary and should resolve on its own. Thank you,Chase Lay, MD
