Yesterday I yawned and felt a little pop in my throat. Then I immediatly had a sore throat and it hurts to swallow. I had been dealing with a minor sore throat for several days prior to this. The pain is a little less than yesterday but now I m losing my voice. Soreness is deep, near adams apple and it s also sore to the touch.

Hello Welcome to HCM,
The history and symptoms are suggestive of laryngitis. It may be due to voice abuse and infections.
I would suggest you to follow 1.Voice rest. 2. Steam inhalation with Vapocaps 3. Oral antihistamines which help to preventIif there is any allergy. 4. Oral antibiotics like Tab Zifi, 200 mg, twice daily for 5 days.
The aforementioned medications can be taken after consulting your doctor and getting the prescription. Thank you.
