Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that she had a blow type hit on the temple, so she must have the concussion type of head injury.
I advise you to consult a neurosurgeon for diagnosis and treatment. She may need to have C.T.scan for confirmation.
Other possibility is the injury to the internal ear, which might be causing the vertigo, and vomiting.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
