There are many types of mercury- like elementary mercury which is usually harmless , inorganic mercury which is a poisonous one can cause burning in the stomach and bloody diarrhoea and vomiting; and the third one is organic mercury which can again cause sickness if breathed in or swallowed. Well I would suggest you to take her to a doctor and should not delay.
