Concussion?

So my DD (12) had a fight on Tuesday evening (she was attacked rather than a fight to be honest). She had a black eye which faded but she also has a lump on the back of her head. Since then she has a bad headache, feels sick whenever she is in the car, 'feels like her chin is holding the weight of her whole head', has a blurry eye that keeps getting quite bad. Is this concussion? Should we take her to see someone? I am aware this makes me sound awful that we haven't done anything but she has told me these symptoms in drugs and drabs and I didn't know about the knock to the head until mid weds at the earliest. I just wonder now whether it is too late to talk to someone. The fight is a whole other thread!

I'd get her checked over.
ESP regarding her eye and her jaw. And tbh the feeling sick and headache!

Hope she's ok
