Could the botox have caused a sinus infection? Did she freeze my sinuses?

February 1, 2019
Asked By:Sharon53cc in Rhode Island, RI

I had botox done and the girl put an injection in the upper side of my nose. It burned when she did it and It was sore for about 2-3 weeks. I ended up with a very bad sinus and tooth infection and had taken 2 rounds of antibiotics but I am still having problems with my sinuses.
