Suggest Treatment For Knee And Thigh Pain After Removing Abscess From Toe

my 8 year old daughter had an abscess removed from her big toe (right leg) on Tuesday and the last few days she is complaining about pain in the left knee to the thigh area. I also found out yesterday that the abscess was infected and she started on antibiotics. Could the 2 be connected in any way?
