hi,
thank you for providing the brief history of your mother.
As mentioned she has taken an x-ray for which she is uncomfortable I will recommend to undergo a CT scan of the skull. As certain times injuries to facial bones are not seen in x-ray and also soft tissue injuries don't make much sound.
if any bony abnormalities are present due to injury a CT can detect and plan the next rehabilitation process
