Brief Answer:
Suggestions on throat pain
Detailed Answer:
Hi... by what you say this looks like a viral illness.
It is very common for kids with viral illness to have some amount of upper respiratory illness symptoms and throat pain.
You can use syrup Ascoril D at the dose of 5 ml three times a day for a period of 3 days and apart from this as a home remedy you can ask her to do some salt water gargling with warm water if she is able to do so.
Please do not use any antibiotics as 99% of the times kid's illnesses like this or viral in origin.
Best regards.
