Hi
With history of fainting episodes post trauma I would suggest you get a CT Scan brain (plain) done at the earliest to rule out any underlying intracranial bleed.
The commonest head injury is intracranial hematoma which can be precisely picked up by CT scan.
CT scan can also detect any skull fracture.
Also keep a watch whether she gets episodes of severe headache, vomiting, blurring of vision or fits.
Dont worry get the CT scan done and see a Neurosurgeon or at least a ER physician.
