Is Facial Swelling In An Infant Normal?

My 5 Week Old Baby fell off the couch this morning I took her to the hospital they checked her over but did not do a CT scan nor a xray they said she was fine. She is eating and sleeping but I am noticing a little bit of swelling on her face, is this normal? Please help me find an answer .. I am terrified something may be wrong because of the swelling? I do go to her doctor tomorrow for a check up.. Will my daughter be ok through the night. What do I do.
