Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, possibility of pneumonia is more.
Children don't show high grade fever sometimes.
Vomiting can be seen in pneumonia.
Chest congestion is classical symptom of pneumonia in children.
So better to take her to pediatrician and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and chest x ray.
She may need antibiotics and other supportive drugs.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
