ENT Specialist 's  Response
hello. persistent hoarseness for such a long time is a cause of worry and needs proper evaluation. it is likely there have been some chronic changes in your vocal cords ( voice box) , dont worry as most of these changes are reversible, please meet your ENT doctor soon. thanks
