Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Your daughter is habituated for opioid, and heroin. She had urine infection.She is extremely swollen.
It could be the bladder infection, or the kidney infection. Kidney infection and swollen body suggest bad prognosis.
I advise you to consult a nephrologist to exclude the kidney infection and failure.
Let her Take more of green leafy vegetables,pulses,sprouts, and protein rich foods to have good health and resistance.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
