Hello,
This condition comes post infection, laryngitis. Since you took antibiotics probably you had bacterial laryngitis. It may need some time for mucosa to get recovered. It may need up 2 weeks.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
