2649: Laryngitis Mar 19, 2022

Most people will have experienced losing their voices, but they may not know everything that is going on with that. Laryngitis, which maybe sounds more severe than it really is, may be caused by a viral infection, irritation, or overuse, but normally doesn't last more than a week. This causes the larynx to become inflamed and will distort the normal sound of air as it travels out. Particularly voiced sounds, which involve the larynx vibrating, may be more hoarse sounding.
