Hello.
There can be many causes for such a presentation like a vocal polyps, laryngitis, etc.
Your doctor will require a detailed physical examination along with the visual examination using a mirror at the back of your throat and may be even an acoustic test. Please check in with your doctor at your earliest convenience. In the meantime, make sure you use sufficient and more amount of lubrication for your vocal cords in the form of oil, etc.
Best wishes
