Is it possible to have ptosis 8 days after botox (dysport), without any previous indication or symptoms prior?

Asked By:molly8212 in Virginia Beach, VA

I had an allergic reaction and a rash 24 hrs prior to the ptosis and can't figure out if this is a swelling in my right eye due to the rash or a symptom of the botox. I assume if it's an allergic rxn I would have it in both eyes?
