I've had a few. Mostly from being stepped on by horses (and believe me, I can understand her pain).
The suggestions I've gotten from doctors include ice in the early stages of the bruise, and as a lump forms (if she gets one), massaging it daily to help break down any scar tissue forming. Holy hell, does massaging it hurt.. but it did help reduce the size of the lump on my heel when I got stepped on most recently.
Good luck.. sometimes the bruising was bad enough for me that I wish I HAD broken the bone instead, so at least the pain would be justified and I'd be in a brace or cast to avoid hurting it further.
