Hello Dear

Please donot take it lightly, the child for sure is not normal and as you have told us that there is chest congestion for last few weeks, you definitely need to consult a paediatrician as soon as possible.
Meanwhile you can give Dabur Honitus or Himalyan Koflet to the child in the dose of 3/4th tsf thrice daily.

Keep the child warm and give her some honey mixed in warm water, but child definitely needs Paediatric checkup for full evaluation and medication.

Hope that Helps

Thanks
