Answers:
Take her to the doctor right freaking now.
Though uncommon, it's entirely possible for her to encounter liver problems at such a young age, especially if she consumed something her body is having a bad reaction to.
The distended (expanding) abdomen COULD just be gas, but it's also a sign of ascites; the build-up of fluid within the abdominal cavity, which is a symptom of liver disease.
The good news is that the liver is one of the few organs in the human body which is capable of self-regeneration, so after your doctor treats the ascites it's quite possible that she may be able to avoid liver failure and even make a full recovery provided she lays off the booze and drugs.
