Hi i am Dr Ahmed Aly
thanks for using healthcaremagic site ,
I had gone through your question and understand your concerns ..

In my opinion that could be due to bad sleeping postures that happens sometimes and they usually subsides simultaneously but with the case of your daughter i think it is a bit larger than usual .
For now i may recommend relaxing and gentle hot massages with topical OTC anti hematommal ointments ( like hemoclair 3 times a day )will be ok if persists i recommend a visit to your physician for proper evaluation of underlying cause .

Please click and consider a 5 star rating with some positive feedback if the information was helpful. Wish you good health,
Any further clarifications feel free to ask
