Hoarseness after unusual cough

Posted by thetacohombre @thetacohombre, Feb 20, 2022

I’ve been dealing with an unusual cough, that sounds like a foghorn, and I get an immediate hoarseness afterwards that lasts at least half an hour. It’s been close to a year of dealing with this, and over time, the cough is more intense & painful.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) Support Group.

Hello @thetacohombre, Welcome to Connect. A year is a long time to deal with an unusual cough, especially if it is painful. There can be a lot of different causes for a hoarse voice, including Laryngitis and other conditions --- What can cause a hoarse voice and how is it treated?: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/hoarse-voice.

Have you seen a doctor or an ENT specialist?
