My daughter has had a sore throat, belly hurting, High fever for first 2 days, and small to no appetite for 2 weeks now... We are concerned-what does this sound like? She also has some red veins on her tonsils. She is 5 years old. We are waiting on strep culture to come back.

Most likely causative organism is streptococcus but in some cases it can be due to other bacteria and viruses as well.Don't worry, I see such cases routinely in my clinical practice. I would recommend you to take following measures to help her
