She got several injuries but no medical treatment or what so ever. Does injured fat heal itself?

Bruising does not require medical attention. The bruised state itself goes away over time through natural healing.

However, fat can also be melted away (e.g. by a magma crab attack), which I think are really bleeding wounds that do benefit from medical attention. I think a doctor will staunch the blood flow in that case, but I don't think the fat grows back (the wiki might have better info on this). I also think bleeding wounds heal over time by themselves if left untreated, provided the victim doesn't die from blood loss.

Thx, youre right!

i was looking for Wounds in the first place but its described under Symptoms.

Bruising

Effects: Causes pain long after the blunt trauma that caused it is over. Even the most severe bruises will heal without intervention, but may hint at fractures under the skin.
