should I call pediatrician?

DD is 8 months old and has had a runny nose/congestion and started coughing this morning and now there is green coming out of her nose.
I have been using that syringe bulb trying to suck out what's in her nose, and using the vaporizer.
Would they be able to do anything if I call?

Usually if I saw green first thing in the morning only, and then it was clear for rest of day I'd wait it out. If it continues through the day or happens in the mornings for more than a few days I'd call. I'd also call at any sign of a fever or if she is reaching for her ears.

no fever, temp was only 98.6
She is napping now, I guess if the green continues maybe I will call.
Thanks.
