How long after Botox injections can side effects start?

picturesquebyproxy
I receive Botox for migraine treatment. I had my second round about a month ago. Today, while I was sitting at work, all of a sudden it felt like someone punched me, and the area is slightly swollen. It is at a point where I had an injection (above my eyebrow). I get migraines, and it could just be something weird with that, but could it be something from the Botox after a month? And so randomly?
