A member asked:
Is it possible that the botox which i had in my neck is a permanent injury since it's almost 9 months and i'm still unable to swallow?

Botox not cause: BOtox is completely out of your system in at most 4 months, so this is not the cause of your difficulty. Have you told the person who injected the botox? Have you asked your physician for another explanation? Do you have a neurological illness? Your neurologist would be the best one to ask about this. Good luck.
