If she is breathing normally and can carry out her usually activities visit to ER is not warranted. If you have a home oxygen monitor (available in drug stores) and her oxygen saturation is above 90% you may watch and wait. Keep her hydrated with water, fruit juice of Pedialyte. If symptoms worsen, then taking her to ER would be warranted.
