During a training session at the 51st edition of the Championships in Liverpool, the 17-year-old fell while working on the uneven bars.
Newman-Achee was taken to the hospital and placed under medical observation for 24 hours before being cleared to compete.
She competed, producing an all-around score of 43.599 in the floor and vault routines.
Newman-Achee, who was born in the USA, is eligible to compete for Trinidad and Tobago due to her father.
