Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of fever with a sore throat which seems to be due to upper respiratory tract infection. It could be due to swollen tonsils sometimes. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to do throat lozenges and do warm saline gargles. You should avoid intake of cold carbonated beverages and maintain proper oral hygiene. Do rinses with antimicrobial mouth wash. You should take antibiotic Amoxicillin in combination with antiallergic medication Sinarest. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should get blood and throat swab test done and start treatment after proper prescription. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
