How long does it take for side effects of xeomin such as aching muscles, head ache, sore throat, and fatigue, to resolve?

Asked By:peacefullysmooth1 in Saint George, UT

I had xeomin 25 units cosmetically utilized 10 days ago. 6 days later I developed fatigue, body aches, sore throat, and head ache. Today I feel numbness and tingling extending from my forehead down into my lips/cheeks. I have had xeomin pretty regularly for the past two years without issue. Should I be concerned, I realize I could have a viral or bacterial infection. Could they worsen or become more serious, and how long for them to resolve?
