Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
There appears to be a blood vessel injury along with either a fracture, a crack or a dislocation. It is important to get a MRI or at least an X-ray of the hip joint. Please consult an orthopedic specialist. Take care!

Really she needs an xray. It will tell lots of things.
