Can u attach your pre treatment scan report ... And what radiation have u taken..is it conventional or IMRT.. IMRT avoids high normal organ doses hence better profile.. Toxicoty depends on site of tumor.. Get a speech and swallowing therapist opinion that will improve voice.. Consult ENT DOC to rule out acute infectious component .. Take regular steam inhalations ..
