Recurrent change in voice is commonly due to vocal nodules or chronic laryngitis. Confirmation of diagnosis can be made by doing laryngoscopy and once confirmed usually treatment involves voice rest, steam inhalation, anti reflux medications and voice therapy
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
