When Injecting Botox for Forehead Wrinkles, What Are the Chances of the Botox Travelling to the Lungs?
LoreanGMay 16, 2012
I have quite severe asthma in the sense that it is quite impredictible (even though my PEF is excellent), and it sometimes worsens very quickly. I am interested in getting botox, and my doctor insists that there are no risks to the lungs when botox is injected in the forehead or crowd feet. But I am really doubtful about this, since I have read that there have been deads related to Botox. I have also read that Botox can cause pneumonia, what is the explanation for this?
