Hi there ~ Your daughter seems to be having a throat infection and needs to be treated for the same. A throat swab for culture and sensitivity to antibiotics may be in place. However you should consult a qualified pediatrician or a family physician to resolve this issue immediately, especially so since she is having problems with her voice as well. I hope this helped. Take care.
