A doctor has provided 1 answer

OTC meds: If no injury then unlikely to be structural damage. If no redness, warmth or swelling then unlikely to be infection. If either of above are true then she should see a doctor. Otherwise begin with ice10 minutes, 3x per day along with over the counter pain reliever. If symptoms worsen or don't fully resolve in 7-10 days then see a doc.
