You can have her seen by your veterinarian or at the nearest veterinary ER. They will likely recommend x-rays to diagnose or rule out fractures. A splint or bandage may be applied and pain medication dispensed or administered. If this is not possible, restrict activity to just leash walks for elimination. Prevent any running, jumping or rough play. Since she is small, carry her outside, let her go then carry her back inside. If she doesn't improve in 24-48 hours, then she will need to be seen by your veterinarian.
