From your history it looks like you are having chronic laryngitis.
Treatment of it is
1. Elimination of infection(that you have already done)
2.avoid irritating factors like smoking,alcohol,polluted environment,dust,fumes etc.
3.Voice rest for weeks to month.
4.Speech therapy.
5.Steam inhalation twice a day.
6.Expectorant like Expect A syrup 5ml twice daily.
