General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

did she have any loss of consciousness, changes in mentation and vomiting when she hit her head? if there's none, observation may be done. if there is, a cranial ct-scan might be of help to further evaluate her condition. the swelling/inflammation is normal and will eventually subside after 2-3days time.

hope this helps.

good day!!
