General & Family Physician,  's  Response
hello and thank you for asking HCM,

I understand your concern. You didn't mention how long your daughter has been suffering from this pain but regarding to your symptoms it look like it could be appendicitis. My suggestion is to visit your GP or go to emergency room as soon as possible to make proper examination and to exclude any emergency. Without well-time treatment, the condition of your daughter could be worsened.

Until than try to avoid intake of food, just let her drink water.

I hope this answer was helpful to you and that you will listen to my advice and bring your daughter to emergency room as soon as possible.
