Hi, I have lost my voice for 5 days now as a result of a viral cold/flu. I've stayed ahead of the congestion by keeping myself healthy with hydration, teas, steam eucalyptus inhalation, and vitamins. Nothing is congested or feels infected, except for my sore throat. I've been watching the white spot on my tonsil and it is getting smaller... The only thing left is that my voice still has not returned. Should I start taking Advil for the inflammation?
