Does CPAP Cause Sore Throat And Loss Of Voice?

I have been on CPAP for years. It does have a humidifier. I got a head cold recently and it isn t really in my chest and I m not coughing nor do I have a sore throat. Yesterday I started to lose my voice and today it is gone even though I haven t been talking much and not yelling at all. Could it be related to the CPAP while I have a cold?

HI
Well come to HCM
This could be allergic condition but investigation is must it can not be taken as granted if such symptom is on and often happening, in my opinion better to get done the clinical examination, till then you can try, long acting antihistamine, Tab Levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day would be nice, take care and have a nice day.
