Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Your daughter is having heavy cough and not having any signs or symptoms.
Such clinical picture may be present in acute bronchiolitis or whooping cough.
Hence better to consult pediatrician and confirm or rule out the diagnosis and get proper treatment.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
