The majority of acute laryngitis cases resolve on their own within days or weeks, but it’s important to consult with a physician if:

  • Your hoarse voice lingers for more than three weeks

  • You don’t have a cold, flu, or sinus infection
  • You cough up blood
  • You have difficulty speaking, swallowing, or breathing

Voice hoarseness may also be caused by:
