Brief Answer: Dysphonia takes time Detailed Answer: Hi Voice rest is very important for you at this stage. Keep inhaling the vapors and do not talk unless necessary till the time your voice resumes normal. The vocal cords carry a lot of swelling and thus the voice pitch comes down. For the swelling to subside it takes a more time (3 to 7 days) than other tissues affected. You can just use TUSQ lozenges and salt water gargles to get better soon. Good health.
Note: Consult an experienced Otolaryngologist / ENT Specialist online for further follow up on ear, nose, and throat issues - Book a Call now.
