Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion your mother is having upper respiratory tract infection (URTI).
Try to follow these steps.
1. Fluoroquinolone group of antibiotic for 5 days.
2. Antihistamines and anti inflammatory drugs for 5 days.
3. Warm saline gargles 5-6 times a day.
4. Avoid hoy, oily and spicy food.
If not improve in 5 days than consult doctor and get done chest x ray and clinical examination.
