Brief Answer:
Take her to ER for trauma evaluation
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Its a trauma case and needs evaluation. It needs work up like radiographs , ultrasound knee and general examination to rule out any fracture and hematoma. So get your daughter to ER and let them sort it out for you.
If all clear they will prescribe some ibuprofen for inflammation and swelling.
I hope it helps., Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
