Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, As your granddaughter is having viral infection which is causing all these symptoms. Most of the viral infections are self limiting, and it will subside by itself. If the symptoms are persisting and recurring, she may require lab investigations like CBC and urine routine examinations. As her weight is normal to her age nothing to worry, it will come down in due course of time. For her symptoms I would suggest her to follow1. Oral Paracetamol, to reduce the fever.2. Give diet rich in proteins.3. Give her multivitamins to boost up the immunity. Thank you.
