What Could Be The Problem With The Throat Having Husky Voice And The Normal Voice Has Not Come Back?

Hi Dr. I am having a problem with my voice for almost 4 months from now. I had a husky voice and drink up colds and my voice never came back as it used to be. And then just this week I checked my tonsils and I've seen that there are steam on my toncils. Does that affects my voice? I cant sing very well because of this. It does not hurt but I am worrying what is this up to. Please response. Thankk you!

ENT Specialist,  's  Response
Hi and thanks for the query,
There are many reasons for change of voice - chronic infection of voice box, nodules on cords, tumours in the voice box etc.
You will require direct or indirect laryngoscopy to visualise your larynx to come to a diagnosis.
Please see an ENT for the same.
Meanwhile follow these measures.
1) Steam inhalation 3 times daily.
2) Voice rest. Do not scream or whisper.
3) Drink plenty of fluids.
Your tonsils will not affect your voice.
Regards,
Dr Kishori.
