Hi Ranjit, Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum.
Does She have Jaundice? Was she alright before 3 days? Is she on any medications? The report suggest mild hepatomegaly. There are various causes for this. As it may happen due to Infections like Hepatitis A, owing to some medications or simple viral infections called Viral Hepatitis. Just get her examined by a Pediatric Gastroenterologist so that he can evaluate her completely and get a Blood Work up done to rule out any Infection or any other cause.
I Wish her Good Health, Take Care.
