Hello..
With the symptoms you mentioned it can be simple viral laryngitis..dont worry
Continue taking a course of antibiotics and steroid for three weeks total..get a ct of your sinuses.
If that doesn't solve prob biopsy from the lesion will be done and exact cause will be told.
Wish you speedy recovery..
