Brief Answer:
Possibly a respiratory infection

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking ,
It seems tha your daughter is suffering from a respiratory tract infection, possibly due to a viral cause. It would be worthwhile to get her evaluated by a doctor and to give appropriate brochodialator medicines like levolin inhaler. Also give her steam inhalation. In case of fever she would need to be treated with Paracetamol.

Let me know if I could help further.
