Brief Answer:
It seems to be due to allergic reaction or inflammatory disease
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to the HCM
I understand your concerns but don't worry. The rashes on foot after 1-2 days of fever can be due to allergic reaction, inflammatory disease such as hanoch schonlein purpura or thrombocytopenia. To come to a definitive diagnosis, kindly post the images of skin lesions along with descriptions (raised lesions or not, any other site involved, fever present or not, any abdominal pain and joint pains, bowel and bladder disturbances, activity of child and appetite, any bleeding tendency and previous allergic tendency).
This will help in a more definitive diagnosis and management accordingly.

For poor appetite and oral intake, start her on Lanzol Junior (15mg ) once before breakfast. Also, give a dose of Syp. Albendazole for deworming.
Hopefully this will help her.
