I had botox today in my right leg for cerebral palsy. my leg is extremely sore! what can i do to manage this pain and when will it go away?

Try: Ibuprofen. Usually this goes away in a day or so. Calf muscle is always one of the more tender areas!

Try ice: Try applying an ice pack. Avoid aspirin, advil, or nsaids as these can make you bleed. Tylenol (acetaminophen) may help. Pain may be the result of normal bleeding or swelling. It should subside in a few days. See your doctor if it persists or gets worse.
