Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of pain and inflammation in larynx which seems to be due to chest infection/ chronic upper respiratory tract infection which spreads down larynx leading to[pain and inflammation of vocal cords and voice hoarseness as well. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles. You should visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get paranasal sinus x-ray done along with throat swab test and blood tests and start treatment after proper diagnosis. You should get pulmonary function test done. Take proper course of antibiotics. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids. Apply mist humidifiers in room.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Harry Maheshwari
