What Causes Fever And Cough After Getting Bronchoscopy?

Hi
My mother recently went through broncho-scopy to get her lungs checked. Doctors suspected TB. Did a CT Scan too but they were not sure since she has had TB before ..around 2 times atleast.
Since bronchoscopy, she is getting high fever all the time and coughing badly.. sometimes feels nausea... what should we do now?
Please respond urgently..
Thanks

Hello

Usually cough is a normal lung reaction due to bronchoscopy.Regarding the fever it has nothing to do with however her doctor knows better her conditions.
