I would offer her normal feed now. As for when she can go back out, that's hard to know. The others may pick at her wound if it's open. You will want to keep flies off the wound as well since they can cause FlyStrike, you don't want that at all. Do you have separate housing that she can go...

Sounds like she's perking up a little. Bruising would be normal, I would just monitor it.

Once she gets a taste, she might change her mind LOL Cute picture:) No, don't drop water into the nares. It would be better to drop water beside the beak and allow the drops to "run around" the edge of the beak, they will take it in. Go slowly. IF you have a small syringe that will slide...

IF she is alert and not lethargic, you may want to clean her up more since she's muddy. If she is not doing well, then I would hold off on that. You can use a hair dryer to dry her a bit. Yes, if any skin is broken, I would put some triple antibiotic ointment on those. You can offer her...

If she's in shock she may not take water or food. I wouldn't worry too much about the food, they can last a few days without it. Hydration/fluids are important, so encourage her to drink or carefully syringe a few drops at a time into her. If you have poultry vitamins those would be good...

Can you post some photos of your hen and the wound? Is she alert and able to eat/drink and stand up on her own? It does sound like you have treated the wound like you should, flushing/trimming feathers and applying Neosporin. Wounds usually do not need a dressing, it would be better to leave...
