Hi and welcome to hCM.
This is a bit long period for viral infection but it can be possible that her infection is associated with allergy too. There is no other cure for virus but taking enough fkuid, reduce fever, eat vitamins and rest. She can do throat smear to identify is there bacterial infection,but this isnt common in her age. I suggets also to do chest xray to see is there any sign of pneumonia or pulmonary disorders. Wish you good health.
