What Are The Symptoms Of Laryngitis?

So my dr says I have laryengitis since I am losing my voice and have a sore throat but now I see what appears to be swollen taste buds towards the back of my tongue. Are the two things connected and how long till I am back to normal I also started coughing a lot today and had a runny nose is this a sign I am getting worse?

Hi,

Relax, Laryngitis is pretty common and easy to deal with!
Symptoms for laryngitis include

1. Cold
2. Cough
3. Sore throat
4. Fever
5. Swollen glands in the neck
6. Pain with swallowing
7. A feeling of fullness in the throat or neck
8. Runny nose
9. Loss of voice

Swollen taste buds (but an actual throat examination may show this to be congested layrnx/ swollen glands) may be associated with this. I would recommend you to have it checked again with your doctor to confirm the same. It usually takes 3-7 days to be back to normal. You can try salt water gargling thrice daily in the mean time.

Take care
Rajesh
