I like to let nature take care of things like this if possible. If it isn't broken and she isn't in a lot of pain I personally would not give her banamine. If she doesn't feel any pain when she tries to use it she will use it which could prolong healing. An old vet told me one time that animals are smarter than humans about not using a limb until it is ready to bear weight.
