What meds is he on now and what has he tried in the past? Hard to do much without a complete history and physical. I would joke that since he's in canada whats her bucket could fix him right up but I like you too much.
@tablefun - i'll find out what meds the family doc prescribed. I suggested he go to another family doc who may know better. Unf. in canada you can't just get up and go to as many docs as u want.
@cindy - Do you think throat specs. would know how to analyze all that and knowledable? My only concern is going to a spec. and they also don't know what's going on. Then starts a merry-go-round of going to as many med. professionals til someone figures it out or prescribes the right medicine.
before we just suppress his cough and forget about it [insert that weird guy with his chicken cooker] lets not forget to figure out what it is. This doesn't sound like your run of the mill cough and its happened before too.
