70 year old with persistent dry cough

My 70 year old mother is sensitive to cold and started coughing when she had a shower and sat below the fan under high speed. She has been coughing since a week. Most times dry, some times she has some mucusy kind of spit out. She has no shortness of breath or fever or any weakness. Should I be worried ? Do I need to see a specialist or run some tests ? Any suggestion would be very helpful as she refuses to see a doctor

Tb or not please suggest

First I would thank the entire doctors in practo who has supported me in my previous post related to find the root cause of the cavity. I haven't taken re test of cbnaat or did culture test yet but my wife (gen doctor govt) she met tamilnadu district tb head doctor (pulmonologist ) taken consultation. He said with respect to scan report it's 100 percent tb and asked to start tb treatment. I couldn't believe I have tb I am non smoker non alcoholic , very good life style. I am confused whether to take treatment or go for another doctor opinion. My wife puts pressure on me that its 100 percent tb and questions like that I don't belive her being a doctor
