Hi.

It can be due to viral infection, however, there can be chance that it is due to allergic reaction to any pollutants in the house or surrounding air.
So it is advisable to once consult an Emergency room and get her checked. For now you can give her Benadryl and along with it you can also give her cough suppressant like Dextromethorphan.

Doing steam inhalations and using a humidifier in her room can help. Also drink warm water and avoid spicy cold and irritant foods. Honey and ginger tea can be soothing. But getting clinically checked once is really necessary.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
