Brother has a severe cough, any info?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Acute?: If the cough is acute and he's sick (fever, drainage, etc) then he should see his doctor regarding bronchitis or viral infection. If the cough has been going on for a while and he isn't "sick" then consider asthma, allergies, acid reflux or side effect of a medication.
