Brief Answer:
Did she loss consciousness?

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have reviewed your wife’s information fully. Unless she lost consciousness, there is no reason to panic about this accident. Managing the pain with tylenol, rest and observation is all I would recommend at this time. For the tingle, this is most likely related to the shock. With no loss of muscle power or sensitivity, monitoring is what I also recommend.

Let me know how she is doing in the next 12hours. All should significantly return to normal.
