Asked By:hvidell in Tulsa, OK

I battled severe TMD 6 mos ago. Struggling again after Botox with all facial muscles extremely tight. 1. When could I start to take flexeril to help my other facial muscles not treated by Botox? Don't want to increase Botox’s effects. 2. When does Botox fully finish affecting the muscles so I know when it won’t get any worse? 3. What day is it strongest and when does the dissipation start? 4. Using warm moist heat on the non treated muscles in lower face and jaw for relaxation, that ok?
