Brief Answer:
Fever

Detailed Answer:
Hello. I just read through your question.
There are many illnesses that present with fever and the symptoms you describe. in most pediatric cases, the cause is a harmless viral illness that ultimately resolves on its own. Fever could last for 2-3 days.
However, if the fever persists beyond 2-3 days, or if it appears like she is really uncomfortable, I recommend consulting with your doctor. A thorough examination will determine if there is ankthwr diagnosis, like bacterial infection, that is responsible. These are typically treated with antibiotics.
