Since 4 years passed since the diagnosis of cancer, chance of cancer coming back is less now. Usually effects of radiation pass of each year and voice will return back to normal. Some have hoarseness persisting for years but without any ill effects. Since cancer is cured, hoarseness will also subside but it would take time
