Hi,
It could be due to the collection of blood under the skin caused by the kick that she received during her playing session. Hot fomentation, pressure bandage, multivitamin and anti-inflammatory drugs will help her in recovery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
