How old is your daughter? Is she coughing anything up? Always best to get little ones checked out just in case.

If she's fine and doesn't have a temperature it's just a cough. If it's still hanging around in a couple of weeks take her then.

she is 4 its just a cough thus why i am unsure she is now eating and drinking perfectly fine now.Like i said just a chesty cough its hard to get a idea of how sick she is as not great with words

if you're worried, take her to the gp.

If she's full of beans then I'd say she's fine.

like i said just unsure but she seems fine i guess i will keep a eye on it if it hangs around by the weekend i guess i will book a appointment

You should only go after a couple of weeks if a child seems otherwise well.
