Hi,
It seems that she might be having acute Gingivitis giving rise this problem.
As now antibiotic is started, within 2-3 days she will be alright.
Give her B.complex syrup as well.
Remote possibility of having Thrush should be ruled out.
Give her cold milk, curd, rice and fruit juices.
Ok and take care.
I find this answer helpful
