Hello,
The symptoms of your daughter seem to be related to a viral infection.
I recommend using anti-inflammatory medication such as Acetaminophen.
I recommend using Azithromycin for the throat infection. It is a prescription medication.
I also recommend using a throat spray with antibacterial properties.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
