Hi
welcome to HCM
Prolonged diarrhea and dysentry need a proper evaluation and investigations if required by a pediatrician to decide course of action.Meanwhile you can give her oral rehydration solution and oral zinc to prevent dehydration and build immunity.
Regarding development she needs assessment by developmental peditrician or pediatrician to assess her devlooment , hearing assessment.If her hearing and understanding is normal,speech does not seem to a major issue , it will come eventually
Hope I answered your query
