General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to the injury.
I recommend using an anti inflammatory medication such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation.
I also suggest using cold compresses for local application.
If she has vomiting you should go at the emergency room for further evaluation.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
