Today, I went to work and had a difficult experience with a coworker. Upon arriving, my coworker looked me up and down and said, 'what are you even doing here?' I responded, 'oh, I’m filling in for such and such.' My coworker scuffed and responded, 'no one ever tells me anything.' Later, while completing my work, I had to use the restroom due to stomach pain and ended up vomiting. I also had food stuck in my braces that I needed to remove. While texting my mother about how I was feeling, my coworker interrupted and questioned my whereabouts. She said, 'what are you even doing?' I replied that I was in the bathroom. She starts screaming 'you were just in there,' and rolled her eyes. I basically just walked away from her to avoid any confrontation. A few customers heard what she said and they started to look at me. Just some context, my coworker has a history of violence, including bragging about punching her ex-boyfriend, and has been fired from a job before. Despite her behavior, I walked away from the situation to avoid further conflict. However, this interaction triggered my PTSD, causing physical symptoms such as twitching in my left eye, difficulty breathing, and a feeling of knots in my stomach and light-headedness. Even five hours later, my left eye still can’t stop twitching.

It depends on what you mean by reporting. Report to the police? Probably not. But you're welcome to talk to your manager about it, even the slightest amount of discomfort she causes could be reported. If the second sentence implied that she doesn't appreciate your appearance, let @BoobSlayer comfort you. #StrongWomanEnergy

Carry pepper spray. She attacks you or threatens you, spray her with it and claim it was self-defense.
If she is making it a hostile environment for you, you should probably speak to your manager about it.
However, manage your expectations. You may still have to work with her.
