Laryngitis Treatments People Should Know

Rest the Voice

When you are suffering from laryngitis, the vocal cords will be irritated and swollen. Thus, these parts need time to recover and heal. That’s why you need to avoid shouting, talking, or any activities that require using your voice too much. If you have to speak or talk in the class or a meeting, do not strain the voice further to make other people hear you clearly. Instead, use a speakerphone or amplifying device for these tasks. Singing would make the vocal cords more swollen and worsen the symptoms of laryngitis, so it is better to stop for a few days. It is better to stay silent as much as you can and keep a natural volume when talking. [2]
