Brief Answer:
Viral fever

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

She might be avoiding solid foods as she might be suffering from throat pain or irritation. Throat pain is very common in viral fevers. Need not worry, once the infection is down, so does the throat pain and she will then accept the solid foods well.

Continue the same treatment. There is no need for any special intervention.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
