Hi,
Thank you for your query.
Apply an ice pack at the injured spot and you can give her syrup acetaminophen/paracetamol 5 ml. three times a day for the pain. In case the swelling increases then it shall be advisable to consult your doctor.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
Wishing your daughter an early recovery.
