Suggest Treatment For Feeling Stuck Throat And Change Of Voice

I feel like there's something stuck in my throat. I've felt this way for over a month and my voice feels very weak. I have shortness in breath, and can't sing at all. What's wrong and what do I do? I've seen a doctor and he told me nothing was wrong, but if I still feel like there's something wrong then I have to go to speech therapy to regain strength I'm my voice.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have feeling struck throat and change of voice which could be due to strep throat, diverticula, tonsilitis , esophagitis. Infection from respiratory tract spreads down the larynx and cause infection there and change of voice. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles on daily basis. You should take antibiotic Amxicillin for 5 days along with antiinflammatory medications. You should visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get throat swab test done along with routine blood tests and start treatment after proper prescription. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
