<bot>: Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor! Brief answer: Your daughter has developed infection (cellulitis)Detailed answer: The problems listed in your question like fever, wound which is red, hot and swollen due to glass piece injury are suggestive of infection caused by the germs on the skin. She needs to take antibiotic like Cephalexin and for the control of fever Paracetamol syrup or suppository will be sufficient. The wound needs to be checked for the collection of pus. etc. and Chat Doctor.
