Frequent Cough from past 1 year
My mother had a cough for the past 1 year, we went to the ENT doctor twice, they checked and said no problem. Consulted with a general physician and they asked for X-ray, after provided doctor said nothing to worry about.
Even we took a master health checkup along with ECG and echo and there is no problem in that as well.
What should be the next step?
