Suggest Treatment For Cough And Sinus Congestion
My 6 year old daughter has had cough and sinus congestion for about one week. After falling asleep tonight, her breathing sounded really labored and she woke up unable to inhale...like the airway was closed. She has no history of asthma, but I do. What could this be?

Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having upper respiratory tract infection.
Due to congestion in her nose she might be having blocked nostril giving her proper inhalation.
Put some decongestant nasal drops like otrivin pediatric nasal drops.
Give her some decongestant syrup.
Go for one antibiotic medicine for 3-5 days after consulting your doctor.
Ok and take care.
