Hoarseness in the simplest sense means, 'hoarse voice'. It may be defined as an abnormal voice change. It is experienced in the form of strained, rough, thick, harsh and grating voice. Variations can be felt even in the loudness and pitch of the voice.
Hoarseness is a temporary infection associated with the larynx, which is also known as the voice box in animals as well as humans. Vocal cords are present inside the voice box. Depending on the vibration of the vocal cord, different sounds are produced.
What are the general causes of hoarseness?
Hoarseness may be caused by common cold, viral infection, cough, irritation due to screaming, smoking, allergy, thyroid problem, acute laryngitis and benign tumor. In adults, the stomach asset comes up to the throat causing hoarseness. Heartburn can also be one of the causes.
When hoarseness arises due to common cold and cough, it will last for 2 to 3 days and will subside using cough suppressant and home remedies like salt water gargling, drinking hot milk with turmeric and pepper powder. As cough or cold suppress, hoarseness will also reduce.
When to see an Otolaryngologist (ENT specialist)?
Serious infections in ear nose and throat are treated by an otolaryngologist. It is very essential to consult this specialist if hoarseness lasts for more than 2 to 3 weeks; pain in ENT is not due to cold or flu, coughing up blood, lump in the neck.
Evaluation: The medical specialist starts his diagnosis by physically examining the vocal cord. Flexible light weight fiber optic tube scope is also used to visually examine the larynx area. Videotaping, acoustic analysis is also done to study voice irregularities, airflow to guide treatment.
How can hoarseness be treated?
The mode of treatments depends on underlying the cause of the problem. The patient may be advised:
- In most cases, hoarseness can be treated just by resting your throat or modifying the use of your voice.
- To avoid smoking or passive smoking
- Referred to a speech therapist to improve sound of voice.
- In case of benign tumor the nodule or polyp is removed by surgery.
How can you prevent hoarseness?
We've all heard the phrase, 'prevention is better than cure'. Alas, it is. Preventing hoarse voice and throat is a much better option than treating it. Here are some tips on how to prevent hoarseness:
- Avoid smoking
- Avoid overconsumption of caffeine and alcohol.
- Consume plenty of water
- Avoid eating spicy food.
- Avoid speaking loudly for long intervals of time.

Hi If you are having a sinus problems for so long we have to rule out Allergic Rhinitis and sinusitis. Get a CT PNS done. Or if you have one done share the CT.
Long term lifestyle changes with gradually tapering medication helps to tackle chronic sinus problems. Start taking Steam inhalation twice a day.
*For chronic sinusitis you will need to take a long term course of antibiotics together with Nasal sprays.
*You will need to avoid dusty environment and dust mites, animal dander etc.
Medical management is done for 3 months and then patients condition is reviewed. Intermittent treatment is not beneficial in the long run.
If polyps ate present and medical management doesn't cure Endoscopic surgery may be needed
Hope this helps.

Pus in ear may be due to infection in ear secondary to ear drum perforation. You need to take an antibiotic course and ear drops to make ear dry and noninfected. Once ear is dry surgery may be required to repair the ear drum. By the time use cotton plug while taking bath.

Hi,
you may be having a persistent sore throat owing to chronic pharyngitis or other allergic conditions. While it is advisable that a doctor clinically examines your throat, I would recommend the following -
(a) you need to have a healthy and balanced diet devoid of excessive spices, salt, oil etc all and have a regularized lifestyle with due emphasis on relaxation/ de-stressing. Instead focus on fresh fruits/ leafy greens. (b) in order that you do not get acidity, it is advisable that you avoid tomato based products, citrus fruits/ juices, greasy, fatty or fried and hot foods, sweets, alcohol, caffeinated beverages, tea (with milk), deep fried flesh foods, peppermint etc. Consume flesh foods, if any, in moderation. (c) avoid sticky foods that create more of mucous leading to congestion in throat. Yellow banana is best avoided.
(d) take plenty of water daily and stay hydrated.
(e) regularize life style, reduce stress/ strain.
(f) protect yourself from intense heat/ cold air.
(g) do not take extremely hot/ cold/ spicy/ sour drinks as well as foods.
(h) warm saline gargling 2 - 3 times daily.
(i) gargle made of tulsi, cinnamon, turmeric or fenugreek seeds and honey are also beneficial unless you are allergic to any of these.
(j) avoid overcrowded places.
Hope this helps. Take care and all the very best.

Red eye has many causes. You have to see if it is associated with blurring of vision, pain, discharge and other complaints. But commonly its allergic or infective in origin ie allergic or infective conjunctivitis. Which has simple treatment protocol. But still its wise to see an ophthalmologist for a thorough slit lamp examination to rule out other differentials for acute red eye.

Hello and most welcome to lybrate,
regarding your concern about your son having polyp, I would like to say that generally polyps with severe clinical symptoms like breathing problems, pressure symptoms with facial deformity, we should ideally go for surgery, but in small polyps I usually try with steroids like long course mometasone spray. Regarding your son, as he has breathing difficulty, first you have to get a ct pns done and he might need surgery. I sincerely wish him an early recovery and a healthy life ahead.
