Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that your daughter is having a viral infection or upper respiratory tract infection known commonly as common cold and cold and fatigue are common symptoms of it..
Nothing to worry as gradually the infection will resolve as the virus will complete its cycle..
You can give her tylenol for relief from generalized discomfort and also give her benadryl for cough and cold and saline nasal drops..
You can also make her do steam inhalations and give her cough syrup if she has cough along with cold.
Taking plenty of warm fluids can be relieving..
Taking semi solid light diet and avoiding chilled foods can help..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
