Loss of voice

2018-04-09 21:42:16
Hey there so I just lost my voice today out of the blue. This has happened before too and never ended up being anything as It came back after a day or 2. This time tho, my throat is a little sore and it hurts to swallow. Also my neck is sore and my lymph nodes seem swollen... what should I do? Thanks

You seem to be suffering from acute laryngitis which is a common type of vocal cord inflammatory condition. You may need to take antibiotics, steam inhalation, and voice rest for few days

Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
