After an 18-day hospital stay, Alicia Hallock is recovering from paralysis and swallowing difficulties caused by Botox injections for migraines.

A Texas woman, Alicia Hallock, experienced severe complications from Botox injections intended to treat migraines, leading to partial paralysis and difficulty swallowing.
Hallock's condition was so rare and severe that her hospital is conducting a case study on her case.
Despite the grave situation, Hallock is recovering at home after an 18-day hospital stay, with her symptoms expected to take weeks to wear off.
Experts maintain that Botox is generally safe, with Hallock's case being an anomaly.
The American Society of Plastic Surgery considers Botox-induced botulism symptoms very unlikely, emphasizing the rarity of such severe complications.
