Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history related to your 9 year old daughter having pain in abdomen for 2 days, no fever, right side hurts more than the left and there is back pain.
The most probable causes of such a pain can be colitis, abdominal lymph node enlargement, worms and so on.
I would advise her the following in such a situation:
Send sample of stool, blood and urine.
Clinical evaluation by a Pediatric or General Surgeon.
Dewormin.
Antibiotic and metronidazole if there is evidence of infection.
Ultrasonography of the abdomen.
This should help her to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
I find this answer helpful
