A member asked:
I had 300 units of botox in my neck 8 months ago and my new doctor believes that my impaired swallowing is a long term injury. is this a huge dose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Large BOTOX dose: Does sound very increased dosage. Thus the risk/complication can take at least 18 months to resolve...
