Brief Answer:
Need only Paracetamol as of now
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Welcome to Ask A Doctor service
I have gone through your query and understand your concern
A sudden onset of fever and abdominal pain in a child can suggest a viral fever or early phase of a bowel infection(acute gastero-enteritis).
If she is otherwise playful, we need not worry much. Just give her Paracetamol. You can give Paracetamol suspension (250mg/5ml) 4ml every 6-8 hours for next 48 hours (guess her weight to be 13-15kg). Give a soft diet and let her drink enough fluids.
If she is not getting better in 2-3 days or if she develops fresh symptoms like vomiting, loose stools or urinary disturbances(pain on passing or too frequent passing), let me know. Otherwise, nothing to. worry.
I hope this answer will help

Better to do
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
As my above queries were not answered, still I am not sure about the cause of the pain.
But, since the pain following a fever, there is a chance of this being caused by a bowel infection/inflammation. The size of mesenteric lymph nodes mentioned in the scanning are also significant(>1cm). In such cases, doing a blood count, ESR and CRP will give us more clues. If all are in line with infection, this will respond to a course of antibiotics.
Let me know if I can assist you further

Brief Answer:
Might be suffering from gastritis.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Pain over the abdomen just below the chest (the epigastrium), especially after eating, suggests acute gastritis and is common following viral illnesses. But, as I said earlier, I would prefer doing blood tests given the size of abdominal lymph nodes. Also, a direct abdominal examination is helpful- in gastritis, she can have tenderness on pressing over the epigastrium.
If confirmed, gastritis will respond to antacids and acid-lowering drugs like Lansoprazole taken for 5 days. Also, we have to avoid hot/spicy/oily items for 7-10 days. Giving a lot of fruits and vegetables is good. So, as an alternate option, we can try these measures first and do blood tests if no relief in 3 days.
Hope I have answered your query
If you need further clarification, I will be happy to help; otherwise, you can close the discussion and kindly rate the answer.
Wishing you good health
