Hi, very sorry to hear about your daughter. High fever, cold extremities, headache, cold, cough with phlegm are suggestive of lower respiratory tract infection, flu, common cold. Giving Tylenol or Meftal-P or Calpol syrup will reduce the fever and headache, however consult your local doctor or Paediatrician as she might require antibiotic for cough to subside. Keep her well hydrated, warm, encourage her to take hot soup, milk.
Hope she gets well soon.
Thank you.
