More details to this question:
I didn't take her to the doctor but did fill out an accident report at the time. The retailer turned off the lights (before closing) so my daughter felt as she had to hurry. She lost her footing and cut her back on a very sharp edge of a bench in the dressing room. It has been just over a month and her back has healed but she has some scaring and is afraid to go back to that store. Do we have a case here?

Unless there was a latent unreasonably dangerous condition that caused your daughter to fall it is unlikely she has a claim. The fact the retailer was closing and you daughter was in a hurry is not sufficient.
