Dear Sir.
Your daughter might be suffering from inflammatory bowel disease... Ulcerative colitis Vs Crohns disease.
I am saying this because she has weight loss since 3 years.
However, bloody stools and pain abdomen of 3 days can be due to dysentry (infection).
If her bloody stool problem persists or reoccurs, consider investigating her further.
Review with us what treatment she is getting and send us her investigations.
Will try to figure out your problem.
I am not saying that she has Inflammatory bowel disease.
Its a differential to be kept in mind.
Hope she gets well soon
