Hi thanks for asking question.
Here are few possibilities.
First it can be because of generalised viral infection.symptomatic management done.
Drink more water and fruit juice.
For vomiting domperidone like drug helpful.
Maintain hydration of her.
Second you can do her electrocardiogram to see if any changes of ischemic heart dz or angina.
Third if no specific cause found it could be muscular pain because of improper posture.
I hope my suggestion will help you.
If still problem deteriorating then further work up needed.
