unfortunately all you can do is wait.... and hope for the best. it may live on with just trouble swimming... or it may die. it is very hard to tell... if your fish was a differant color and starts to turn red... it has internal bleeding and is most likely going to die. that is the best anyone can offer. im sorry about your fish. =[
 
Please help. I can't find anything on google or anywhere! My betta fish jumped out of her little 1 cup sized holding bowl while I was changing her water in her 2 gallon bowl. I did not realize that bettas can jump out of their bowls!!!! Anyway I turned around to leave the room to get her bowl buddies tabs for her clean water and I jumped back when I stepped on something cold and wet - I was barefoot and thought it was a cooked vegetable or something that might have fallen on the kitchen floor from the stove when I was cooking dinner earlier. No!!!! It was my precious betta girl!!!!!!!! She was laying on the carpet after an aparent leap from her small bowl and I stepped on her!!!!!! OMg. I freaked out and cried so much I quickly put her back into her bowl and I think one of her fins is damaged - her left one looks a little shorter than the other one and she is having a hard time swimming and is laying on one side.... but she is using both fins now.. .its been about 6 days since this happened. She likes to eat still... and her color is great... but she is hanging out at the bottom of the bowl on her side and now when she swims to top for air and food... she starts to fall over backwards... oh god. :( I must have crushed something when I pressed her into the carpet with my barefoot by accident. Please - has this happened to anyone before? I dont know what to do to help ease her suffering and aid her recovery... I've been changing her water every single day and keeping it warm at 85 degrees and just keep praying to st. francis that she will get better. help! can bettas recover from internal injuries? what if i crushed her swim bladder or her spine? or what?? or is it just her little fin thats making it hard to swim? I hear they grow back fins eventually....
 
She may have a bit of shock,
Maybe go to your local pet store/shop

and ask for 'GOLD... disease safe'
This stuff is amazing.
Id highly recommend it to anyone

It helps prevent and fix all illnesses to fish espeshally if they have shock.

I reccomend it to everyone on here, i really do think this stuff is brillient

And its only £2.20 for a bottle
