Hi,

I am sorry about your daughter's fall. You have done the right thing and she is feeling normal except for the sore feeling.

Please continue to give the analgesic every 3 to 4 hrs and also the ice packs for next 24 hours.

She shall be fine soon. There is no need to take her to the doctor.

In case she develops vomiting, intense headache, blurring of vision, loss of consciousness - only then you need to take her to the ER.

Hope this helps. I wish your daughter quick recovery.

Regards,
I find this answer helpful
