Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your mothers situation and problem. At her age of 82 years, heart and lung diseases can cause chest congestion and breathlessness. So better to get done 1. ECG, 2d echo to rule out cardiac diseases. 2. Chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to rule out lung diseases. So better to first diagnose herself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your mother. Thanks.
