the child appears to be having acute gastroenteritis. she is running high grade fever, so a sepsis screen should be done to rule out any systemic infection. excessive crying in AGE can be due to rashes in the peri-anal region due to loose stools. apply some local application like Siloderm cream for the same. give her a course of oral antibiotic like syp Cefixime or Cefalexin(sporidex).
