Medical Botox (botulinum toxin) is a prescription medication used to treat a variety of medical conditions by temporarily relaxing muscles. It's commonly used for conditions like chronic migraines, muscle spasms, overactive bladder, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and cervical dystonia (neck spasms). By blocking nerve signals to the muscles, Botox reduces their activity, providing relief from pain or discomfort associated with these conditions. Unlike cosmetic Botox, which is used to reduce wrinkles, medical Botox focuses on improving quality of life for patients with specific health concerns. The effects typically last 3-6 months.
