I cannot answer your Question (What or how much should I ask for as compensation for injury?) as I do not have enough information. There is no magic formula to determine what a case is worth. Each case is different and dependent on its owns facts and evidence. A person is entitled to be "made whole" or "compensated" for his or her injuries and damages. There are a number of factors that help determine what a case is worth, which include, but are not limited to: the nature and extent of the injury; medical expenses; whether an injury is temporary or permanent; lost wages; and pain and suffering. If an injury is permanent or will affect a person in the future, the person should receive additional money. Settlement databases and jury verdicts can help determine a range of what a case is worth. You need to find settlements or verdicts that match your case as closely as possible for these to be useful. You also need to look at settlements and verdicts in the same or similar location as you are in. For instance, if you live in a small town in Western Nebraska, settlements and verdicts from Lincoln or Omaha may not be of much use. There are a number of sites that provide settlement and verdict information.

You may have a products case. they are complicated. You must prove that the fault was that of the manufacturer. Can you do that? You will likely need an expert. And they come dear. Is a broken door worth all this?

You can sue for battery, but a bruise is not that significant of an injury. I presume you did not incur medical expenses. If you did, she could be held liable for those expenses. You say there are no evidences but you there are two witnesses. A witness' testimony is evidence. The time frame is irrelevant as you have 2 years to sue for battery.
