How Serious Could A Toddler's Chest Impact Be, Continuing To Play Normally?

28 month old fell and hit her chest area on the side of the bed, it was red for a few minutes but cleared up and there is no bruising or swelling; she cried for a few seconds and was up and running around saying "its ok now". She is talking and alert. Should I take her to the ER?

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
If child is active otherwise. Nothing to worry , just observe the area and consult if you notice anything abnormal.
Don't worry, she will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query.
Thanks.
