Q: what would happen if nurse injected botox near or through temporal artery? i see she was near or on top and was worried. my vein look inflamed after. i feel normal though?

: Am totally unaware of any documented case of BOTOX being accidentally injected into a temporal artery, and would doubt that any profound consequence would ensue if this occurred. See no reason to anticipate such issues in the future with trained and experienced individuals using appropriate dosing.
