All swimming pools have chlorine mixed in the water as disinfectant. She's probably allergic to it. Since you have specifically mentioned that she has the problem ONLY while swimming,that could be the reason. The only treatment for allergy is avoiding exposure to the allergen. Or you could talk to the incharge for reducing amount of chlorine in the water.
