An examination: More detailed history as to when and how the symptoms started and an examination would be recommended to determine if mild and with known cause or more significant. Schedule an appointment for her to be seen by her local physician . You can discuss the history details further with a virtual physician here on HealthTap; however, if an exam is indeed required, you will be referred to see someone.

No: No, I would not be worried. But it would be reasonable to have her seen and evaluated as there are multiple potential causes.

Do not worry: Agree with Dr. H. It would be prudent to take her to a doctor for an evaluation. If she has lost weight, please treat it with urgency. In the interim she may take acetaminophen for the pain. She should also get HPV vaccine. Wish you and your daughter good health!
