Hi doctor, i was wondering if i can get an answer to my mother's complaining, which is a pain around her left elbow, occurs sometimes not always.

Elbow pain: would usually be caused by repetitive movements of the joint, causing tendonitis (inflammation of the tendon). Arthritis can also cause pain but it is less frequent cause . Give a rest to elbow and apply couple time ices on it lasting 10 minutes each time and also your mother can take otc nsaid for short period of time if no stomach ulcer or gastritis. See how she is doing. See doctor if persist.
