I received my first Botox treatment august 2023 due to muscle spasm. However, I didn't like the new appearance from the effect of Botox. It's been 8 months but I didn't feel my face went back to original 100% yet. I thought that it only require 3-6 months only to wear off.
I got juveau for the first time on 11/9. I have received botox and dysport many times before and never had any issues as they wore off etc. This time i noticed initially asymmetry in my right eye being my eyelid was much more raised and that eye felt dryer post procedure. I got used to it. I am in desperate need of more and noticing when i make certain exaggerated expressions my muscles twitch in my cheeks when i scrunch my nose or lids when i raise brows. Is this them trying to work?
I had severe muscle spasm in the right side of my Semisplenius capitis and Splentis capitis muscles. 7 months ago they have been injected with a high dose (approx 400 units) of Allergan Botox. I have now severe muscle atrophy in around the injection sides in these muscles. They are painful, thin, lumpy, inflamed and burn almost all day long. I'm doing neck strengthening exercises for many months, to reactivate/regain muscle mass, but no result. What can I expect and do about my situation?
This is the second time this has happened and Im freaking out. First time was yesterday, and second time was just now. A small area on my forehead will raise up and I cant control it! It only lasts for 10 seconds and it relaxes again. Its in the center of my forehead. First one was a slight to the right and the second was slightly centered and to the left. What the heck is going on?? Should I be concerned?
2 weeks after Botox in masseter (20 units left & 25 right) for TMJ I started to get muscle spasm around chin and jowl area. After 6 weeks, my contoured oval face is now flat with a pulling in right jowl area. Feels like theres a trigger point on jawline around DAO/lower cheek area. My temporalis has hollowed after 15 units. Surgeon said he could put Botox in DAO & platysma to stop the spasm; he promised my face wouldnt slim after Botox and it has!!! Should I try acupuncture?
If I rub eyebrows or use those muscle to squint I can feel slight tingling then the muscle above eyebrow contracts in a way that I couldnt have done before Botox. It usually last a minute than slowly relaxes. Is this a side effect or is it an untreated muscle overcompensating for those I cannot use due to Botox?
I had Botox done two days ago on te centre section of foreheads for between eyebrows, and around lower eyes. Five hours after I had sex with my partner, resulting in a painful headache. This headache has now been constant. I keep getting mini muscle spasms in my forehead too. I'm also getting pain at top of neck at back of scalp but I'm not sure it's related. Is it possible that something has gone wrong?
I had surgery for ruptured bicep in January. they could not repair all the way back to shoulder and anchored it to pictorial muscle. now i have spasms through out the day and when i do any thing to flex bicep i get sharp pain and bicep stays flexed for a long period of time. muscle relaxers help a little with the spasms but not the pain or flexing when i use it. Botox has been recommended but worried about side effects and it will even work?
Hi, I had a cervical disc replacement due bulging disc. After the surgery, my pain and spasms got worse. I now have chronic pain muscle spasms in my neck and shoulder. Muscle relaxers and pain meds are not helping! My NS said the hardware is in place and everything looks fine. If that's the case, why am I having more pain and chronic spasms? Any suggestions on how to get rid of it? My quality of life is at a 0 right now.
I have extremely painful muscle spasms/knots only around my right shoulder blade present for several years. Previously I could work out the knots with a Theracane or rolling on a tennis ball, but for the past year I now only receive a few minutes of relief before the spasms recur and I have these spasms every day throughout the day. Physical therapy, deep tissue massage/trigger point release, dry needling/trigger point injection, muscle relaxants, gels/patches, rollers have not provided relief.
