Are her nails a bit long? It’s normal for them to scratch behind their ears when grooming but if her nails have got a bit long it could have made a sore place. Also check if there is anything sharp in her cage where she could have had her head. Some wood items have nails and some house entrances and tunnels can be too small. Anything with an entrance needs to be at least 6 cm in diameter or the can get stuck.
