What Is The Cause And Treatment For Laryngitis?
Hi, I have laryngitis, ear pain, sore throat with some red & white patches, tightness in upper chest area. I had chicken pox 2 weeks ago & was put on antiviral medicine from that. Sore throat started midway through treatment and has progressively gotten worse to today. Laryngitis started 2 days ago. No obvious drainage from sinuses. Nose has been clear. Suggestions?
