Laryngitis Laryngitis Home My Dad used to say that learned to talk early and haven't shut up since. Not exactly: I've had laryngitis enough times to look into and find some simple and reliable cures. Here they are: 1. Saturation, or bowel tolerance, of vitamin C will stop laryngitis in a matter of hours. If you take as much "C" as you can hold, as often as humanly possible, your voice will be back promptly. People who take multi-gram doses of vitamin C every day preventively are unlikely to ever lose their voice in the first place. When I do weekend seminars, I am speaking for six consecutive hours on two consecutive days. I take about three grams (3,000 milligrams) every hour, and don't lose my voice anymore. 2. The homeopathic remedy Ferrum Phos 6X works for loss of voice due either to overstraining or simple inflammation. This remedy works best taken promptly, preferably as soon as you notice the slightest huskiness or hoarseness. A homeopathic remedy is taken until the symptoms begin to improve. Then Mother Nature takes over and you body heals itself. 3. An ounce or two of cider vinegar, straight, will do wonders for a simple sore throat and laryngitis. When I do this, I get the impression that the vinegar is absorbed into the throat on the way down and never even reaches the stomach. If you immediately, and I mean immediately follow the vinegar with a chaser of a cola soft drink, you will barely taste the vinegar at all. Be sure to rinse your mouth with water afterwards, to remove any lingering acidity from either the vinegar or the cola. If your stomach is delicate, taking a calcium supplement along with the vinegar will buffer it in the tummy.

Supporting Research Signs and Symptoms An unnatural change in your voice Hoarseness Loss of your voice Tickling, scratchiness, and rawness in your throat A constant urge to clear your throat Fever, general feeling of lethargy and tiredness, and difficulty breathing mark more severe cases What Causes It? Viruses or bacteria infect the larynx, or voice box, and cause it to swell. That produces irritation and soreness, and changes the voice, making you sound hoarse and unable to speak above a whisper, or even causing you to lose your voice entirely for a few days. Often, the virus comes from another ailment, such as a cold, the flu, or bronchitis. Overuse of your voice, by screaming or shouting for long periods, can worsen the irritation and swelling produced by the infection. Smokers and people who work around fumes to which they are allergic often have chronic laryngitis. What to Expect at Your Provider's Office Your health care provider will examine your throat and take a culture if it looks red. Your provider will also use a device that looks like a dentist's mirror to examine your throat and larynx. This procedure, called indirect laryngoscopy, enables him or her to check for swelling.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is inflammation of the esophagus (swallowing tube) and often the larynx (voice box) caused by acid refluxing or backing up from the stomach into the esophagus. In many people this refluxing acid reaches all the way up to the voice box and higher sometimes even into the back of the mouth and nose. This acid causes irritation of the delicate tissues that cover the inside of the esophagus, larynx, and back of the throat. This results in various symptoms including a painful or burning sensation in the chest ("heartburn") difficult or painful swallowing hoarseness increased mucus in the throat (phlegm) a feeling that something is stuck in the throat (foreign body sensation or globus What is the treatment? The goal of treatment is to keep stomach acid and other irritating substances out of the esophagus and throat. Treatment allows healing of the damaged esophagus and voice box as well as prevents further damage. Treatments include lifestyle changes and often medications that help decrease the production of stomach acid.

Reflux is caused by a weakness in the muscle at the junction of the esophagus (food tube) with the stomach. Normally, this muscular valve, or sphincter, functions to keep food and stomach acid from moving upward from the stomach to the esophagus and larynx. This valve opens to allow food to go down to the stomach and closes to keep the stomach's contents from coming back up. The backward movement of stomach contents (gastric contents) up into the esophagus is referred to as gastroesophageal reflux. In addition, any increase in abdominal pressure ( obesity ) which can push acid back from the stomach up the esophagus, or any patient with a hiatal
