Hi, Kareena,
Thanks for query.
It seems that your daughter is having Acute tonsillitis giving rise to high fever and cold symptoms.
She may require antibiotic treatment as early as pssible to stop spreading infection in the blood.
Consult your doctor and get her examined.
Do not give fried and junk food.
Give plenty of water.
Ok and bye.
