Guehi, 24, was able to lift the trophy alongside club legend Joel Ward.
However, he was rushed to hospital in an ambulance afterwards.
The BBC have claimed here were fears that he suffered a fracture to his eye socket.
It is currently believed that he has severe bruising and that he avoided anything more serious.
When he was taken off the pitch, it appeared to prompt a clash between City’s head of sports medicine Max Sala and the Palace bench.
He went face-to-face with Eagles assistant manager Paddy McCarthy, before security was forced to intervene.
However, it is not yet known whether he will be able to play in Palace’s remaining Premier League fixtures.
The Eagles still have to play Wolves at Selhurst Park before finishing the season away at Liverpool.
Guehi was discharged at around midnight which means he was unable to attend the club’s celebration party at BoxPark.
He was not the only player who had to visit hospital as Adam Wharton also needed attention.

The midfielder had to undergo concussion tests and was not present for the trophy lift.
He shared a picture on social media from his hospital bed after being checked out by doctors.
He captioned the snap: “Apparently we won the FA Cup. Eaglessssssssss.”
The two missed their team-mates’ wild celebration with fans, which included Dean Henderson singing an X-rated chant.
Will Hughes could be seen downing a pint while Jean-Philippe Mateta enjoyed a dance.
Eberechi Eze netted the only goal in the final as Palace beat Manchester City 1-0 at Wembley.
The result saw the Eagles win their first-ever major honour.
Crystal Palace ratings
CRYSTAL PALACE secured their first ever trophy with a famous FA Cup final victory over Manchester City.
The Eagles went into the match as underdogs but managed to nullify the former Treble winners with a spectacular defensive display.
And at the heart of it was goalkeeper Dean Henderson, who could have been sent off for handling the ball outside the box before making the most of his reprieve.
The goalkeeper went on to save a penalty from Omar Marmoush before producing a string of saves to keep Pep Guardiola’s men out.
