How To Treat The Lumps Caused By A Fall And The Related After Effect Of It?

Wife just fell down while walking. Landed on knees first, continued falling flat on her face. Had lumps quickly form above & below her right eye. We are applying an ice pack every half hour for 5 minutes as treatment so far. Possible carpet burn to ear side of right eye. She has no pain...yet.
