Lingering pain after Botox?

Hi, for those of you who get Botox, I have a question. So I had my third round of Botox about 10 days ago. Normally I have a sore/bruised feeling particularly near my temples for about five days, and then it’s gone and I don’t notice anything. But here I am on day 10 and it still feels really painful—like I got hit in the head on both sides. I am still taking Tylenol and using ice packs.
I will say that this round of injections felt particularly brutal. I had tears running down my face and cried out a few times. I have a pretty high pain tolerance but maybe I was feeling extra sensitive. Anyway, now I’m anxious that it’s not supposed to hurt for this long. I do have messages into my neurologist, but knowing him it will be a while before I hear back🙄
