Botox Does A Whole Lot More Beyond Wrinkle Prevention

We all have heard of Botox, the injections that so many have come to rely on for the prevention or smoothing of wrinkles. Did you know that Botox does a whole lot more beyond wrinkle prevention ?

At Physicians Medical Group of Cleveland, we are not only a family of physicians offering chiropractic services, sports medicine and physical therapy but a wide array of injections including Botox.

One of the most debilitating conditions that Botox has been effective at treating is chronic migraines. By getting a series of injections on the head and neck, migraine headache sufferers can see relief for up to 3 months. This for many can been a gamechanger.

But that is just the beginning. Here are some additional uses for Botox:

  1. Severe neck spasms
  2. Excessive underarm sweating
  3. Overactive bladder
  4. Crossed eyes
  5. Depression
  6. Severe cold hands

Other uses include cleft lip scars on babies, premature ejaculation in men and painful sex for women

The top for items on this list have FDA approval.

In case you’re wondering how popular Botox actually is, sales are projected at over $3 Billion for 2018. So, no question as to how popular it is and with all the new approved treatments, it’s going to be around for awhile.

The other good news about Botox now being FDA approved for treatment of a variety of chronic conditions, including migraines, it will usually be covered by your insurance. But the bad news is if you want to get rid of those wrinkles, they’re probably not medically necessary to correct so you’ll be picking up that tab yourself.

Botox does a whole lot more beyond wrinkle prevention that may be able to help you.

Please call us with any questions and we do offer same day appointments. You can call us at (440) 882-6382 or schedule your appointment online.
