Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for the query.
I do think spirometry with bronchodialator testing which your mother has not undergone yet will give you the answer and if the test is indicative of obstructive airway disease then inhalers in proper doses will relieve her cough. Your mother may also undergo a HRCT scan thorax to reveal something in the background of non-contributory chest x-ray. You should consult a pulmonologist soon and get your mother thoroughly examined and go for the above mentioned investigations to get an answer.
Thank you.
Regards
