What Should I Do For My Voice Which Went Away Due To Phlegm?

Hi,
I think your voice is one due to some amount of laryngitis and also due to some associated reflux.
As you said you have phlegm,it could be the drip that is causing the problem.
Try steam inhalation,mucolytics and continue treatment for reflux.
Don't whisper,dont shout,speak in your frequency slowly.Have frequent sips of lukewarm water.
