Hi,
Thank you for your query.
It looks like gastroenteritis as she is having diarrhea, fever, and pain abdomen.
Give sips of oral rehydration solutions to prevent dehydration and Tylenol for fever in prescribed dose.
And if she develops any vomitings or pain increases, I suggest you to consult the doctor for follow up.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
