What is chronic laryngitis?

Chronic laryngitis is a long -term inflammation that affects human larynx, an organ that contains voice chords. People often develop acute laryngitis that disappear quickly, but some develop a case that persists. When a person has chronic laryngitis, inflammation and accompanying symptoms can take weeks, months or even years. However, chronic laryngitis is not usually accompanied by pain or infection. Its primary symptoms are voice changes such as hoarseness, but can also cause dry throat, postnasal drip and swallowing discomfort.

A person who has chronic laryngitis will usually speak in a hoarse voice. His voice can burst or break and speak clearly may require more effort than usual. In some cases, a person with this condition can feel as if he had a lump in his throat or that his throat is dry than usual. He can often clean his throat and experience a post-spheric drip. Sometimes a person with this condition may also notice discomfort when withIt swallows, but direct pain is less likely to evolve.

The individual may have laryngitis that lasts for several days, but such a case is not considered chronic. Instead, symptoms of laryngitis must usually last for two or more weeks to be considered chronic. In some cases, laryngitis can last for years. This often occurs, for example, when it evolves in relation to action, such as smoking or other condition, such as sour reflux. In fact, a person with a chronic case of acidic reflux may have chronic laryngitis that lasts until the reflux is successfully inspected.

There are many things that can contribute to the development of chronic laryngitis. For example, a person may develop this condition due to cigarette smoking or continuing exposure to inhaled chemicals or allergens. Acid reflux can contribute to its development, d chronic sinusitis can play in italso. Some people can also develop this situation due to alcohol abuse. In addition, singers and others can also develop this situation who overuse their voices.

Although less likely, chronic laryngitis may sometimes be caused by chronic infections and even parasites. This may also be caused by cancer of voice chords or some kind of injury or trauma to the larynx. In some cases, this may even be caused by aging that contributes to changes in human voice chords.

In most cases, the treatment of chronic laryngitis focuses on the elimination or control of the conditions that contribute to it. It can also help avoid cigarette smoke, allergens and chemical inhalation. Sometimes medicines are used to reduce vocal chord inflammation, but such treatment is often reserved for people who need their voices to sound normally because of their career.
