Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of cough with stuffy nose and wheezing which is a sign of respiratory tract infection along with pulmonary wheezing. Need not worry. I would suggest you to take short course of antibiotics such as Amoxicillin or azithromycin for 5-7 days along with Antihistamine such as Chlorpheniramine. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. Get chest X-ray done and start treatment after proper diagnosis.  You should use room humidifier and vapor rub that will give benefits to you. Steam inhalation is very effective, but you have to be very careful while taking it. You should use throat lozenges and go rinses with warm saline water. Take diet rich in vitamin B12. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
