The image includes a logo of Bhopal ENT Clinic with the slogan "Where Every Breath Counts" and a detailed anatomical illustration showing the larynx (voice box), vocal cords, tongue, trachea, and lungs.

Laryngitis happens when your voice box (larynx) gets inflamed, causing your vocal cords to swell and prevent appropriate vibration. This will make your voice sound hoarse (rough or scratchy), and you may even lose it. Most people recover from laryngitis without needing medical treatment.

Acute laryngitis

This is a type of transient laryngitis that often resolves after proper diagnosis and treatment. Bacterial infections, vocal cord strain from misuse, and any form of viral infection, such as the common cold, are among the most common causes.

Chronic laryngitis

This condition lasts more than three weeks. It is often caused by prolonged exposure to specific irritants. For example, it can be induced by long-term inhalation of chemical fumes, smoke, and allergies.

It can also be caused by gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), often known as acid reflux, which occurs when stomach acid regularly rushes into the tube that connects the stomach and mouth.

Laryngitis Treatment by Dr. Sadat Qureshi Laryngitis specialist in Ayodhya Bypass, Bhopal

Acute laryngitis typically resolves on its own within a week. Self-care practices including vocal rest, drinking water, and moisturizing your air can also help alleviate symptoms.

Antibiotics

Antibiotics will not treat almost all cases of laryngitis because the cause is generally viral. However, if you have a bacterial illness, your doctor may prescribe an antibiotic.

Corticosteroids

Corticosteroids can sometimes help reduce inflammation in the voice cords. However, this medication is only utilized when there is an immediate need to treat laryngitis, such as when a child has laryngitis together with croup.

FAQs

Severe laryngitis usually lasts for a week or two. If your symptoms last more than three weeks, you may have persistent laryngitis.
