Hello,
Your daughter needs to be given analgesic to control fever. Calpol can be prescribed for her.
Cold sponging also beneficial.
Additionally, you need to investigate her with CBC also further work up.
If CBC shows neutrophilia than antibiotic course should be prescribed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
