Suggest Treatment For Severe Headache Caused By An Injury

My 21 one year old daughter hit the back of her head pretty hard 3 days ago and has had a bad headache and extreme fatigue since. No blurry vision or nausea, normal pupils. She is concerned. Painkillers are not working for the headache. What should she do?
