Common Questions and Answers about Laryngitis treatment larynx

laryngitis

Avatar f tn It is inflammation of the larynx (voice box). It is mainly caused by virus and treatment depends on type of virus affected. Even serological tests will help to identify the responsible pathogens. It can be treated with appropriate anti viral. But drinking lot of fluids, sucking lozenges, gargle with salt water, breathing moist air to soothe sore throat, refraining from taking decongestants (because they dry your throat), resting your larynx will help you.
Avatar m tn Hi, there are two possibilites, "post nasal drip" or larynx inflammation. Do you have deviated nasal septum or sinusitis? Chronic discharge from sinuses drain out constantly in throat, causing sticky throat. Treatment is anti histamincs, decongestants along with antibiotics. Try steam inhalation along with ambroxol. For laryngitis, usually steriods are prescribed but best is to consult ENT surgeon. Indirect laryngoscopy is done to see larynx condition.
Avatar f tn 10/2 back tp ER. Was admitted again.Saw ENT, flexible scope up my nose foind vocal cords, larynx and cartlidge in my throat were swollen and airway was comprised.iv steroids,flovent 220 and breathing treatments. The ENT said GERD. I have been on protonix My GI says it is not GERD. ad endoscopyseveral months afo and was negative for GERD. The pulmonologist said it was laringer spasms and a viral infection in vocal cords. Hospitalized for 3 weeks.
Avatar f tn More plausible causes of hoarseness of voice need to be checked like acute laryngitis, vocal cord nodules, allergies, gastro esophageal reflux, smoking, thyroid problems, trauma to larynx, parkinson’s disease and trauma to larynx. Consult an otolaryngologist who will evaluate the causes and treat likewise. Cough suppressants for laryngitis, treat GERD, stop smoking, vocal rest etc will make a difference. Hope this information helps you. Take care.
Avatar m tn Make sure that you drink plenty of fluids, especially water, 2-3 litres per day is recommended. The voice box (larynx) needs to be rested and lubricated. Misuse of the voice, either by shouting and exposure to irritants (in your case, smoking) can damage the vocal chords. Acid reflux can also cause damage to the vocal chords. You may have nodules on the chords, or have mucus coating them and that will cause crackling, hoarseness, etc.
Avatar m tn I am 22 year old man.I started to do singing exercises many year ago form watching videos at home. I rashly did trills and rolls and made harsh sounds. i did it continuously for months and months. Now i am facing extremely serious speech problem ,. i cant start words.like my words get stuck every time and feel i have damaged my vocal cords or larynx muscles ...as they don't close or open properly? now i have completely stopped exercise or singing .
Avatar m tn You could have acid reflux induced laryngitis. An ENT could give you an accurate diagnosis, but discussing the issue with your primary care provider can also be helpful. If it is from acid reflux, OTC reflux meds probably won't be strong enough for your problem. Also, it can take about 3 months from the time you gain control of the reflux for your speaking voice to return fully. It has taken over a year for my singing voice to return.
Avatar m tn Is this from the Acid Reflux or from the Bronchitis. Is it Bronchitis (or Laryngitis) that comes up for me periodically or is it the Reflux? I've not been smoking for several months now, but I did have a few cigarettes this past week, and I also had a few beers. Finally, I had some Sushi tonight as well. Any suggestions?

396332 tn?1320003615 If acid reflux gets past the upper esophageal sphincter, it can enter the throat (pharynx) and even the voice box (larynx), causing hoarseness or a sore throat. Laryngitis Nausea Sore throat Chronic dry cough, especially at night. GERD is a common cause of unexplained coughing. It is not clear how cough is caused or aggravated by GERD. Asthma.
Avatar m tn About 3 months ago I engaged in oral sex with another boy (I am not gay, but every now and then I play around with this boy, so it doesn't happen very often at all maybe once a year). No semen ever entered my mouth. A few days later I got really sick, sore throat, fever, and eventually lost my voice for a few days. When I recovered, my voice sounded different.. not hoarse per say, but just different, and was noticed by a few others.
Avatar m tn In June 2020 I got a bout of laryngitis. I continued on for 10 days w/ progressing neck pain radiating up to my temple on right side. Sent for Covid test (neg). Worsened and went to ER. Xrays and CTs showed slight protrusion of C4&5 and C6&7, but otherwise - normal. CBCs normal. SedRate/Inflammation marker - normal. I am female, 5'8 140, overall good health. In the last 9 months, ENT for laryrngoscopy -> clear.
Avatar n tn As someone who is still recovering from acid reflux laryngitis, I will say that it took MONTHS for my voice to return. My laryngitis started in October 2009 and continued into April 2010 with slight improvements starting in late February. When I was first diagnosed as acid reflux causing my laryngitis, I was told it would take at least three months to get my voice back.
Avatar m tn Hello, There are many conditions which can cause difficulty in speaking at higher pitches. Voice misuse and overuse are common causes. Acute laryngitis caused by allergies, viral infection, chronic laryngitis and laryngoesophageal reflux all can cause hoarseness and voice difficulties. Rare but serious causes producing these symptoms are vocal cord paralysis and vocal cord tumours.Please see your Otolaryngologist (Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor) for an evaluation.
Avatar f tn I've had laryngitis before, at least about a couple times. The vocal cords get inflamed and that's why you can't talk. It does feel like there is something stuck in there. Likely that's part of the inflammation. I don't have asthma but I do get seasonal allergies on top of perennial allergies. Add a cold to the mix and it does leave one feeling very miserable. Do you get a lot of post nasal drip? That could add to your coughing.
Avatar f tn the itchiness from healing tissues that have been damaged from a bout of laryngitis or rhinovirus. Just like a scab becomes pruritic as tissue is regrown, the same sensation can occur in the esophagus, trachea and larynx. That's the tickle she is referring to, and is a normal process of healing and can be incredibly irritating, causing an almost uncontrollable bronchiospasm.
Avatar f tn They range from an inflammation of your larynx or voice box to an enlarged thyroid cartilage, or even the effects of gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD. Having any of these problems requires that you visit the doctor immediately for a proper diagnosis. Laryngitis is an inflammation of the voice box and can occur due to an allergy or an infection like a sore throat.
Avatar f tn Okay, since 1992 I have had lots of throat infections in 1995 I had my tonsils and adanoids removed to help however it never did. And still had aleast 7 throat infections and laryngitis a year but since January this year I have had 20suvere throat infections all with laryngitis.
Avatar n tn However, a side effect of both medications is laryngitis. I recently had laryngitis for 6 weeks. It started as a virus and would not go a way. I decided it was my atrovent neb (an anticholinergic like Spiriva). My allergist thought it was my Dulera (inhaled combination med like Advair). I eliminated the atrovent and reduced my Dulera and the laryngitis healed. She needs to discus any changes in dosage with her doctor before making changes.
Avatar m tn getting oral hpv with oral sex is extremely rare... you should see an ENT specialist to get good diagnoses... once you are diagnosed by your doctor you may come back to this forum to discuss the treatement options and to listen about others experiences... you should get yourself checked first...
Avatar f tn It sounds as if they have given you the Prozac as a prophalactic prior to treatment so it is quite likely that you wouldn't feel any benefit. I would be loathe to up the dose until after you have started treatment. It is common for the interferon to cause serotonin depletion and by starting the Prozac before the interferon whill hopefully offset any negative effects you might feel. I was on Prozac before I started and had to increase it after about 5 weeks of treatment. All the best.
Avatar n tn if could be any of the following Blood clot in the lung Bronchiectasis Bronchitis Cancer Cystic fibrosis Goodpasture syndrome Inflammation of the blood vessels in the lung (vasculitis) Inhaling blood into the lungs (pulmonary aspiration) Irritation of the throat from violent coughing Nosebleed that drips blood down into the lungs Laryngitis Pneumonia Pulmonary edema Systemic lupus erythematosus Tuberculosis
Avatar m tn I have similar problems. I have pain in the Larynx area. Doctor advised Steam, Rabee-D and Solvin.
