Throat problem (laryngitis)

2017-12-14 13:14:54
My brother is suffering from laryngitis for more than a month now. We have consulted with doctor and taken some antibiotics as well. He has a habit of smoking and drinking. He has lost his voice and very little voice is audible from his mouth. Please suggest any treatment and exercise to recover the voice.
