Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of fever and loose stools which seems to be due to infection either viral or bacterial. Symptoms such as watery diarrhea, muscle aches occurs along with fever. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take combination of anti-inflammatory drug along with Ibuprofen. you should take Azithromycin as well as it could be the case of co-infection. Drink plenty of liquids. Visit General physician once and get it examined. Get blood tests done if symptoms keeps on persisting. Do tepid sponging as well. Avoid giving any sharp, spicy and fried food t child. Avoid intake of outside food.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
