Hello,
Your mother symptoms could be related to chronic bronchitis. For this reason, I recommend consulting with a pulmonologist for a physical exam and a chest X ray study, coupled with pulmonary function tests and inflammation tests (complete blood count, PCR, ESR).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Iliar Sharka
