Suggest Treatment For Cold And Cough In A Child

My 2 year old daughter had been fine with no signs of getting a cold. Tonight she woke up crying gasping for air. She seems to be making a croup sound like cough. Can she have croup without any other symptoms or could it be a piece of candy she didn t swallow completely?
