Hi.
Thanks for your query.
The reason of the low grade fever with swollen glands, puffiness around the eyes and pain in the right lower abdomen can be due to Viral fever- flu.
There is a possibility of appendicitis or colitis giving similar symptoms.
I would advise you to take her to the ER as there is no point in waiting to see a Doctor after 2 days as by this time she will be examined by a Doctor, investigated and properly treated.
Please take her to the Emergency room to get investigated.
Blood, urine and stool and an ultrasonography will help to have a differential diagnosis and get an appropriate treatment at the earliest.
I find this answer helpful
