She could have an abscess or infection in her glands or diarrhea that leading to discharge or fistula. The sneezing is common in kittens and can be from a respiratory infection. I would have the vet check her. the respiratory component are easy to fix. If there is an infection or abscess and diarrhea, they can do a stool sample to see what the problem is and how to fix it to get the area to heal properly
