Ear Hurt And The Pain Is Almost Like The Pain During Ear Infection. What Should I Do?

My daughte 4 years old and she is blind and was walking with her walker and fell.I pretty much caught her in time but ,she hit her ear. After the fall it didnt bother her at all. When we got in the car fifteen mins later she started whining and crying saying daddy I want to go to the doctor. She is 4 and literally never crys. From the questions I asked her, she is saying that it hurts like when she gets an ear infection which she gets often during winter. She first started complaining about one side now she is complaijasng about the other. There is no visible marks or anything which looks like she hit her ear what should I do or what can I do to make her comfortable to see if I need or don't need to call doctor. I just wouldn't even know what for them to check her for.
