Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had laryngitis for almost 2 wks. & now I am hoarse for 8 days. I have seen a Dr. & NP. I originally started with a cough, sore throat then earache. The 4 steroid pills given & cough pills didn t seem to work bc I still have the cough. I saw a CVS NP day after New Years bc I had gotten worse. She gave me antibiotic, flonase & gargle which got rid of my fluid behind the ears & sore throat. This past Fri. I saw a NP & she gave me a steroid shot. I have not improved except maybe feeling a little bit better but not much improvement as for as the hoarseness & now a slight cough. Could this be more serious? Linda
