thanks for your query
betnosol is a steroid that is used to treat allergy in your mother's case.
the use of steroid is known to cause osteoporosis( bone loss) and sometimes avascular necrosis of knee joint( decrease blood supply to knee joints) in few cases. so avoid steroid and consult a good physician and get treated for allergy
thank you
