Hello parent
We need a more detailed history and she needs a examination n evaluation (blood test and /or scans) after examination. The two things injury in abdomen and not able to stand/ walk) can be associated or just coincidence. The test report attached shows infection but source of infection is to be found.
Next Steps
Don't delay and consult nearby pediatrician urgently
She might also need opinion from Pediatric surgeon and orthopedics.
