take strict voice rest, steam inhalation. you should start with steroids,antihistaminics and antaacids. stop smoking if you do. if you don't have bad cough ,it will recover soon. if you have cough add take an antibiotic course too. if you don't have any cervical swelling nothing to worry. if it doesn't mprove you can get a chest x ray done. voice loss may be because of laryngeal and vocal cord edema.
