Correct ruling?
It is not an inadvertent whistle. Officials can stop the game on their own for many reasons. This is one of them. The officials have the right to stop the game for what is an apparent injury. This is the judgment of the officials. And in this case the player is allowed to stay in the game if the appear to be OK.

Peace
