Your : Your daughter's symptoms are not normal and could indicate, among other things, a serious spinal cord injury or other problem affecting the spinal cord. The fall may have caused the problem, or may have been a symptom of the problem. You need to get this checked out right away.

Suspect backwards: I suspect from your description that her weakness caused the fall, not vice versa. Why did she herself not post this? Why has she not gotten medical care already? This sounds like an urgency or even an emergency. You won't get an answer re what's wrong with her here, for 2 reasons: 1) this site is not for diagnosis and 2) even if it were, your description isn't enough. Get her to a doctor.
