Brief Answer:
NO need to see the doctors now!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this fall that your mother sustained. I have reviewed the information and also think he did not broke any bones as pain is minimal and she can works. Pain medications such as Tylenol and Ibuprofen would be helpful. Ice pads would also help accelerate the resolution of symptoms.

Please, falls can be catastrophic. I will suggest that you often look after her to avoid any future falls. We are very lucky she went unscathed this time around.

I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish your mother well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
