Soft tissue injuries take about a week to heal and if the joints are involved more time is needed.If her pain is not relieved it's better to get an x-ray of the involved joints.

Please consult an Orthopedic surgeon in your area. An X examination should be done because X rays can see much more than what we can see.
If there is no skin injury then there is no need for Betadine.

Anti inflammatory and painkillers should be taken regularly for atleast 3-4 days to facilitate healing.
Next Steps
Incase of dirty wound, TT shot and a 5 day antibiotics course would be wise
