Introduction

Any hoarseness lasting longer than 14 days, requires treatment which will not only provide an immediate relief, but will deal with the reasons for the problem.

It is very important to have an ENT specialist’s diagnosis, preferably a stroboscopic examination of your cords. It is necessary mainly in order to rule out any malignancies, and detect bleeding. In the latter case, you should have a vocal rest, under the doctor’s recommendations.

In case of malignant lesions, you must follow the specialist’s orders, of course. But, the doctor may also recommend surgery in case of benign yet large lesions, such as warts or polyps. Very often, lesions can be cured without surgery. The latter is inevitable only in life-threatening situations, such as a blockage of respiration. Otherwise, use conservative therapy, combined with a follow-up by your attending physician.

On certain occasions, your ENT doctor may prescribe you medications such as anti-acids, steroids, antibiotics, expectorants, antihistamines, decongestants, etc., as well as consulting a speech therapist.

The aforementioned medications may have side effects harmful to your vocal performance, such as:

  • Vocal cords dehydration, as a result of using decongestants or antihistamines for treating allergies;
  • Bleeding or polyps, when using steroids during intense vocal efforts;
  • Steroids injected or taken by mouth may cause edginess, fatigue, weight-gain, and other side effects. Use steroids only when it is absolutely necessary, for example, in case you lost your voice shortly before a vocal performance.

Therefore, to avoid these vocal side effects, we recommend consulting a vocal cords specialist.

In addition, ENT specialists have very long waiting lists, so you should better start treating your hoarseness right away, to avoid any further deterioration.
