Can a cold decrease Botox lateral brow lift effects because of irritation?

I've just had botox injected in my upper forehead (so I can still lift the brows) and some to raise the lateral brow. I can already see great results in my forehead but the brow lift not so much. I just caught a bad cold and my eyes are very irritated and watery and I have a feeling that the muscles are pulling down because of this.
