Hoarseness of voice because of vocal cord palsy usually recovers within few months. First line treatment is voice therapy. If your voice remains bad even after 6 to 8 months of palsy then you may need to consider surgery known as thyroplasty
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
