Well, first off as a certified vet tech for 13 years my first advice is get her to a vet if you are concerned. You will need to find one who deals with "pocket pets" and exotics. Nobody can diagnose over the internet. Second, this being an invert forum primarily, while some people may keep hedgehogs/have kept them, this isn't going to be the best place to get that kind of advice. Really, if you're concerned find a vet, and take her in. Based on the little info you supplied I wouldn't even venture a guess, as there are just too many things it could be, and she should be assessed. Good luck with her, they're great little pets.
