Causes of hoarse, hoarse voice in children and adults
The voice of a person is a sound wave that occurs when air passes through the voice larynx of the larynx with closed vocal cords. The longer and thicker the ligament, the lower the voice. The thinner the ligament, the purer the tone.
The voice becomes low and hoarse, when the ligaments become uneven and thicker, or additional obstacles interfere with the voice wave. This state is called dysphonia. This is possible in several situations.
Causes of a change or loss of voice in an adult
Infectious and inflammatory diseases of larynx and vocal cords
Inflammatory changes in ligaments and, above all, edema in acute viral inflammation of the larynx (laryngitis) or laryngotracheitis causes hoarseness of the voice. Puffiness prevents the bundles from tightly closing, changing the color of the voice and reducing its sonority.
- In addition, dry cough may be observed in the program of tracheitis, a rise in temperature to 37-38, perspiration, tickling and gulping in the larynx.
- Hoarseness can be replaced by complete loss of voice (aphonia).
- Such a picture can be observed in case of influenza, parainfluenza, adenovirus infection, respiratory viral infection.
- Also possible are bacterial laryngitis caused by pneumococcus, bordetella, hemophilic rod, or fungal laryngitis against the background of candidiasis of the larynx.
With chronic laryngitis of a different origin, the hoarseness of the voice can remain for life.
Poisoning
- Chlorine is given by the hoarseness of the voice, loss of voice, dry cough, spasm of the glottis, pulmonary edema (Domestic, ACE, BOS, Prill, Whiteness, Comet, etc.) in households inhaling vapors of some household chemicals.
- Ammonia, in addition to a hoarse voice, causes perspiration in the throat, pain behind the sternum, coughing with mucous sputum, which in severe cases go to pulmonary edema.
- Fluorine is provoked by the clinic of laryngitis, lacrimation and redness of the eyes (conjunctivitis), cough, mucous discharge from the nose, bloody diarrhea, convulsions, delirium.
Allergic conditions
Laryngeal edema on the background of an immediate allergy or with complementary system features develops in the Quincke edema program. At the same time, the hoarseness of the voice is a formidable sign preceding the stenosis of the larynx and difficulty in breathing up to choking. In addition to choking in the throat and coughing, breathing is difficult, gradually turning pale, and then the face and fingers turn blue, there is inhibition or excitement, followed by loss of consciousness. All stages very quickly replace each other, therefore the condition concerns to urgent.
Exchange violations
- Hypothyroidism or a decrease in the production of hormones by the thyroid gland also changes the voice. It develops in the outcome of thyroiditis or after removal of the gland due to goitre or tumor, and also results from radiation therapy or iodine deficiency in endemic areas. Against the background of hypothyroidism in the tissues fluid, laryngeal mucosa and ligaments swell. In this case, the edema is sufficiently tight and poorly eliminated, although with hormone replacement therapy it is possible to restore the voice. Characterized by the type of patients with hypothyroidism: they are swollen, puffy, pale, hindered. They have dry skin, brittle, dull hair and fallen outward edges of the eyebrows. They are little interested in external stimuli, suffer from lack of appetite, dyspnea, slow heart rate.
- Dehydration is another cause of hoarseness. When there is a shortage of water, dry skin and mucous membranes, thirst, hoarse voices may appear, to which, as progression progresses, cardiac disturbances and disorders of consciousness are added.
Acute or chronic burns
- Upon contact with acetic acid, ligaments and larynx can receive chemical burns of varying severity and depth. Cicatricial ligament changes can spoil the voice or even deprive it of it forever.
- Nicotine, carbon dioxide and tar formed during smoking, constantly irritate the mucous membrane of the larynx, provoking swelling of the ligaments and hoarseness of the voice (smoky voice).
- Burns with ethyl alcohol work slowly, but surely. In chronic alcoholics, the voice is characterized by hoarse (drenched voice).
- Reflux esophagitis, in which hydrochloric acid and pepsin from the stomach are thrown into the esophagus and can enter the larynx (cf. medicines for heartburn).
Overvoltage of ligaments
Speakers in front of the audience of teachers, lecturers, actors or singers against the backdrop of the chronic tension of the voice apparatus, can "sit down" voice. To prevent this, all singers are involved in special systems, try not to overload the ligaments and periodically visit a special doctor - a phoniatrist. If an unprepared person starts too much and screams loudly, he can simply break his voice, faced with a complete impossibility for a while to speak.
The most unpleasant thing that can happen to those who often use voice in their profession is education specific proliferation of ligaments or "nodules which sometimes even have to be removed surgically.
Injuries to ligaments
They can occur when tracheotomy, when the stenosis of the larynx or getting into the respiratory tract of a foreign object is dissected trachea. A case is known when a surgeon who operated in 1922 Lenin, the chief doctor of the Kremlin hospital, VN Rozanov, "Was fortunate enough" to make a tracheotomy on the threshold of the hospital with a penknife to the church singer, who suffocated from stenosis larynx. Deprived of his voice, the surviving "grateful" patient filed for his savior in court, who sided with the surgeon, denying the suit.
For today, it is precisely because of the risks of ligament damage that conicotomy is used instead of tracheotomy, dissecting the ligament between the thyroid and the cricoid cartilage.
- The second variant of traumatic damage to the voice is the trauma of the recurrent nerve, which innervates the vocal cords. This trouble can happen during surgery on the thyroid gland. Unfortunately, after such a trauma a person for the rest of his life gets a hoarse voice.
- After a general anesthetic, at which the intubation of the trachea is performed, the larynx can be scratched. In this case, the voice will become sonorous after the mucous membrane is restored.
Peripheral paralysis and paresis of the nerves supplying the larynx
The larynx, in addition to the recurrent nerve, is innervated by the overturn. When they are damaged, there are violations of the voice in the form of hoarseness.
- Self-paralysis of the overlying nerve is a rare pathology. It is accompanied by a feeling of numbness of the larynx and a weakening of the tension of one or both ligaments, which is accompanied by changes in the voice. From diseases to this condition lead syphilis, diphtheria, rabies. The cause may also be trauma.
- Paralysis of one or two recurrent nerves (left and right) is a consequence of the compression of the thyroid gland, mediastinum, lymph nodes, esophagus. With dilations of the heart, nerves may also experience compression. Paralysis can cause intoxication in rabies, botulism. The left recurrent nerve suffers more often. The clinical picture is characterized by impaired (hoarseness) of the voice until its complete disappearance and breathing disorders of varying severity. In this case, the vocal cricle is narrowed, and the ligaments (on one or both sides) are practically immobile.
Tumors of the larynx
As they grow, they squeeze the vessels and nerves, disrupting the structure of the ligaments and their mobility
- Benign tumors (fibromas, polyps, papillomas, angiomas, cysts, chondromas, lipomas) grow from connective, adipose tissue, vessels, mucosa, glands and can be congenital or acquired. They are more likely to suffer from men. The main complaints of patients are hoarseness, coughing or periodic coughing. For tumors on the leg are characterized by episodes of voice changes. When the tumor prevents the ligaments from closing, the voice may disappear completely. Excessively large tumors can trigger choking.
- Malignant tumor - laryngeal cancer gives voice disturbances very early, if located in the vocal cords and much later if localized in other parts of the larynx. This is characterized by a constant hoarse without periods of improvement. As the process progresses, pain in the throat is added, which can turn into a chronic pain syndrome, aphonia may develop. Also characteristic is a dry reflex cough. In later stages, cancer intoxication and malnutrition develops. With large tumors, choking may develop.
Vascular pathology
- An aneurysm of the aortic arch can cause paralysis of the left recurrent nerve.
- An aneurysm of the right subclavian artery causes the paresis of the right recurrent nerve and the sagging of the ligament from this side. In addition to constant pressure, the beating of the vessel can destroy the outer myelin sheath of the nerve, making it difficult to carry a nerve impulse along the nerve to the ligament.
- Hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke of the brain stem.
Brainstem lesions
Bulbar paralysis of the lesions of the glossopharyngeal, vagal and sublingual nerves with hemorrhages or toxic lesions of the medulla oblongata. Such a syndrome is characteristic of botulism, brain stem glioma, porphyria, Lyme disease.
The voice becomes dull, hoarse and incoherent until the voice is completely lost. In addition, there is a breakdown in swallowing, choking food, pronounced blurred speech. Disorders of breathing and heart rhythm may occur, against which patients die.
Osiplost voice at the child
In general, children suffer from the hoarseness of the voice against the background of the same sets of causes as adults. However, there are also features.
- Congenital cysts of the larynx or papillomatosis are quite common cause of a hoarse voice in children of different ages. The slowness of the voice in the baby can be caused precisely by this reason.
- Foreign bodies - in children more often than in adults with laryngoscopy over a hoarse voice, foreign bodies of the larynx are found (husks from sunflower seeds and pistachios, small toys).
- Scream - if a child has a labile nervous system and he likes to scream, sooner or later a hoarse voice is just guaranteed to him. The more the ligaments are overloaded, the more likely the formation of nodules on them, spoiling the voice.
- Dysphonia functional, if anatomical changes in the larynx are not detected, then they speak of functional dysphonia. This is due to the fact that the child is not yet able to correctly use his voice and it's time to lead to the phoniatric.
- Boys at 12-15 years on the background of hormonal imbalance and lengthening of ligaments also have voice problems. Chrumpage gives way to screechy notes and, in general, the voice resembles a rusty sign on an American tavern open to all winds. If the mutation is delayed longer than six months, it is worthwhile to show the teenager to a specialist.
All the situations discussed above are classified as planned, but there are also urgent cases in which it is important to act competently and accurately without losing a minute.
- Stenosis of the larynx is an acute narrowing of its lumen on the background of allergic edema (Quincke's edema), croup against the background of stenosing laryngotracheitis. Angioedema of the larynx develops in children even in the first encounter with an allergen. This is the fault of the complement system, which triggers a cascade of reactions with the release of inflammatory mediators. As a result, the laryngeal mucosa swells, narrows the vocal cavity and increases the thickness of the ligaments, which are more closely connected.
- Infectious stenosing laryngotracheitis most often affects children from three months to three years (see. laryngitis in a child or barking cough). Under the influence of viruses of influenza, parainfluenza and others, rapid swelling of the larynx develops below the glottis. More rarely, the cause of croup is diphtheria of the larynx or defeat of herpetic infection. Stenosing laryngotracheitis is also described with chicken pox. The child has airways and larynx already, than in an adult, so even in a short period of time severe breathing disorders may appear.
The attack, as a rule, develops in children at night. In this case, there is a hoarse "barking" cough, hoarseness of the voice or its loss, breathing with a loud long breath precedes complete asphyxia. There is a discoloration of the skin (pale with cyanosis of the nasolabial triangle and fingers).
- At the first degree of stenosis, the lack of air appears only with the load and is manifested by the pulling of the jugular notch and the epigastrium during breathing.
- The second degree is marked by pallor, cyanosis of the tip of the nose and lips, rapid heartbeat, excitation of the child, involving in the respiration of the auxiliary muscles.
- The third degree manifests itself as pronounced respiratory failure (a sharp pallor with blue lips and fingers, noisy breathing with difficulty in inhaling).
- The fourth degree is considered to be the suffocation itself with a superficial type of breathing, rare heartbeats, lethargy and inhibition or loss of consciousness.
Treatment of hoarseness
The question of how to treat the hoarseness of the voice, is in the office of two doctors - the otolaryngologist (LOR) and phoniatrist. The first is engaged in diseases of the larynx, the second - proper voice problems. Silence is most important for the restoration of the voice. That's when it really becomes gold, saving costs for tablets and inhalers. Voice rest can be assigned for different periods of time.
And only in cases of stenosis of the larynx (of an infectious or allergic nature) do first-aid doctors and anesthetists-resuscitators.
Infectious lesions require etiotropic therapy
- antiviral drugs are prescribed for viral origin
- at bacterial - antibiotics of a wide spectrum of action, like penicillins, macrolides
- with fungal lesions -griseofulvin or other antifungal agents.
- At the same time prescribed antihistamines of 2-3 generations, reducing the puffiness of the larynx
- An excellent tool against the hoarseness of this kind - irrigation of the larynx with a solution of 5% ascorbic acid
The order of help in stenosis of the larynx of allergic origin
- Interruption of contact with an allergen
- Inhalation of oxygen
- Sodium chloride,%, epinephrine (adrenaline), prednisolone intravenously
- In the absence of effect - intubation of the trachea
- Before this, the administration of midazolam, atropine, ketamine
- If intubation fails - conicotomy, artificial ventilation, hospitalization
Further treatment is carried out in the intensive care unit and resuscitation with transfer to the profile department for the treatment of the main cause of stenosis.
- Allergic conditions require infusion therapy and the appointment of glucocorticosteroids (prednisolone) and antihistamines.
- Tumors, cysts, papillomatosis is operated.
- Vascular pathologies are operated or treated by vascular surgeons.
- Crises in the brain are conducted according to the stroke standards in the ITAR offices and the neurological departments of the hospital. There they also deal with neuroinfections and bulbar parlic.
- Peripheral paralysis of the laryngeal nerves requires the fight against the underlying disease that led to them. In the recovery period, physiotherapy and phonopedic exercises are conducted.
- Poisoning with chlorine requires washing the nose, eyes and mouth with a 2% solution of soda, inhalation of oxygen, the administration of analeptics.
- Poisoned with ammonia requires inhalation of warm water vapor with the addition of vinegar or citric acid.
- When lesions with fluoride, it is necessary to wash the stomach with 2% soda, take a calcium preparation or a glass of milk with two egg whites.
Medications from the hoarseness of the voice
The most popular means of hoarseness, in addition to mortar, are tablets for resorption in the oral cavity. However, they are contraindicated for children under 5 years of age. Antiseptics and antihistamines are most effective.
Local antiseptics
- Based on iodine: Lugol lubricating solution, spray yoks, Iodinol for rinsing.
- Chlorine-containing: Miramistin, Eludril, Corsolut for rinsing.
- Vegetable: Chlorfilipt, tincture of calendula, salvine for rinsing.
- Recoatable tablets: Laripront, Agicept, Grmmidine, Septotelet, Suprim-lor, Falimint.
- Inhalers: Cameton, Ingalipt.
Antihistamines
- 2 generation: ketotifen (very effective for spasms of the bronchi and larynx).
- 3rd generation: astemizole, astemizane, hasmanal, acrivastine, claritin, loratadine, clarisens, allergodyl, ebastin, telphast, zirtek, terfenadine (see below). tablets from allergies).
Folk remedies from the hoarse voice
- Half the glass with warm milk, add the same amount of mineral water "Borjomi add two teaspoons of honey. Drink a solution of temperature 36 degrees in small sips for 20 minutes.
- Gogol-mogol: 2 yolks grind with a teaspoon of sugar, add a teaspoon of butter. Take a quarter of a spoon between meals.
- 10 grams of chamomile add to 5 grams of lavender, pour a glass of boiling water, bring to a boil on a steam bath, cool to a temperature of 60 degrees, do inhalation.

Throat throat: what to do and how to treat hoarseness of voice in an adult
The slowness of the voice, dry cough in an adult with a cold does not surprise anyone - these are typical symptoms of diseases of the upper respiratory tract.
But not always hoarse voice in an adult appears only because of this. In fact, there are other reasons why the hoarse throat.
Which ones, what treatment is required, how quickly to restore the voice at home?
The answers to these questions are especially important, if the adult's work depends on the voice, it is necessary to treat such a phenomenon.
Causes of hoarseness
Why does the voice become hoarse or disappear at all? Physiologically this is explained as follows: either the vocal cords are irritated, and then the voice sounds hoarse, or the pathologies of the larynx develop, and then hoarseness occurs.Treatment is required different. Therefore, if the throat rises more than two weeks, the voice is almost gone, there is reason for concern and visits to the doctor.
The most common causes of hoarseness are as follows:
- Inflammation of the larynx caused by viral or bacterial infections. Most often it is with a cold or flu that it hurts and wheezes your throat. Also there is a dry cough, the temperature can rise. If other cold symptoms have already passed, but the voice has not recovered, laryngitis is diagnosed - the chronic form often has to be treated with antibiotics.
- Overvoltage of the vocal cords. It is often enough to shout loudly once or sing a song to permanently disrupt the voice. Also, the voice grows hoarse and disappears from those who regularly load the voice apparatus - from speakers, lecturers, speakers. Treatment can be done at home, without loading the vocal cords and rinsing.
- Bad habits. Alcohol and smoking greatly affect the vocal cords. If a person used alcohol on the eve of the day, do not be surprised that in the morning his voice was gone and his throat hurt. If you get rid of bad habits, the voice will recover by itself. Only in advanced cases requires special treatment.
- Nervous stress. If a person is very nervous or frightened, his voice may be lost. Cure such a phenomenon can be with the help of sedatives and complete rest for the vocal cords - you can not even speak in a whisper.
- Pathology of internal organs, dysfunction of the thyroid gland, neoplasm in the larynx. These are the most serious reasons for the scaling of the voice, the treatment will take a long, probably surgical operation, which will help to get rid of hoarseness.
The reasons for a hoarse voice can be far from being innocent and safe, as it may seem at first glance.
Therefore, if there was a cough, the voice changed, there are other alarming symptoms, a visit to the doctor should not be postponed.
How to cure cough, sore throat and hoarseness quickly
If the voice is gone, there is a cough, a sore throat, you should quickly contact an otolaryngologist - he will select the appropriate treatment and will consult what to do and how to get rid of unpleasant symptoms.If you choose the right medicine and do all the procedures prescribed by your doctor, the laryngitis treatment will take 7 to 10 days. You can treat hoarseness by such means:
- Erespal in syrup or tablets - this drug removes the inflammation of the larynx, swelling, promotes the expansion of bronchial lumens;
- Miramistin is a potent antiseptic, in the pharmacy you can buy it in the form of a spray or laryngeal solution;
- Falimint, Septotelet - tablets and troches for resorption, help to treat sore throat and cough, restore voice;
- Bioparox, Ingalipt - with the help of these aerosol and inhaler you can eliminate all the symptoms of laryngitis - sore throat, dry cough, - and restore the voice;
- Lugol is also an antiseptic solution for treating the inflamed larynx.
If the voice is lost, treatment with folk remedies can be effective. But you still need to consult a doctor. Sometimes, to cure a cough, sore throat, hoarseness requires antibiotics. But such treatment can appoint only a doctor-otolaryngologist, if it is precisely established that the cause of infection is a bacterial infection.
Treat laryngitis depending on the pathogen can be drugs such as Augmentin, Amoxiclav, Ceftriaxone, Aksetin, Cefixim, Summed, Clarithromycin. They destroy bacteria and thereby quickly and effectively eliminate inflammation, sore throat, hoarseness and hoarseness. But it is impossible to make appointments for oneself, as antibiotics are effective and safe only with a properly formulated treatment regimen.
It should also be noted that there is no universal medicine that would quickly help every patient if his voice was gone.
Therefore, do not trust the advertising and advice of friends, what helped cure laryngitis to them, may be ineffective and even harmful.

Another accessible and tried-and-tested recipe for ages is the gogol-mogol. This tool can be treated even completely missing voice, it is very popular with opera singers whose vocal cords receive regularly enormous loads. But, of course, the gogol-mogul acts as a home medicine of local action, it can not neutralize microbes.
Prepare it this way:

Why the voice sat down and how to treat the problem
If the voice has sat down, how to treat this condition? Osiplost voice can be a manifestation as an independent disease, and accompany a different pathology. If there is a reason, you should remove it and the voice will return the previous sonority. Changes in the voice can be physiological in nature (in adolescence, "breaking" of the voice in boys).
Causes of hoarseness
The most common cause is an infectious disease. It can be ARVI, influenza, parainfluenza, adenovirus infection. Often this is a laryngitis. Also, the infection can be bacterial, caused by pneumococcus, hemophilic rod, staphylococcus or other pathogens.
Poisoning with dangerous volatile substances such as chlorine, fluorine, ammonia - this can also cause hoarse voices. In this case, in addition to hoarseness, there are other symptoms, such as lacrimation, dizziness, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness is possible. The same symptoms can develop with prolonged work on chemical production with a high level of occupational hazard.
Hoarseness may be a symptom of Quincke's edema, a dangerous allergic reaction requiring urgent therapy. The reaction may begin with hoarseness of voice and result in stenosis of the larynx and stopping breathing. It develops as an immediate type of hypersensitivity. A small amount of allergen stimulates a huge release of the mediator of inflammation and swelling of the larynx with a gasp of asthma.The reason for the hoarse voice may also be a tumor localized in the larynx, near the vocal cords or directly on them. In tumor processes, hoarseness persists for a long time and is poorly amenable to therapy. There is a pain in the throat, there is an increase in body temperature, deterioration of the general condition of the patient.
Changes in the voice are observed with hormonal disorders. When hypothyroidism occurs edema of ligaments, fluid retention in the larynx. When androgenic disorders in women, the voice becomes lower and coarse, hoarseness may appear.
Poisoning with nicotine, ethanol, lead to a gradual development of hoarseness of the voice. Bundles in such cases are restored extremely long, and more often are not restored at all. The voice becomes smoky, drenched. Osiplost in this case is completely the fault of the person with the wrong way of life. Unfortunately, in recent years, women with a low, smoky voice have been seeing increasing frequency.
Professional singers, speakers, teachers may lose voice, due to a heavy load on the vocal cords. To prevent aphonia, they observe a number of rules and keep their voice.Even a child can have a sitting voice. In children, this condition can be caused by the ingestion of a foreign body into the larynx. It can also be a laryngeal edema that requires urgent intervention. Children with disorders of the nervous system can shout loudly and loudly, sometimes cry so long that they tear off the voice, and for a while can not speak at all.
In an adult, changes in voice can be associated with a transition to an honorable age. People over 70 years old have a rattling voice, this is associated with age-related changes in the vocal cords, they become less elastic, thinner and longer.
Therefore, to properly treat the hoarseness of the voice, it is necessary to establish the cause of these symptoms. As you can see, there are a lot of reasons. Symptoms of loss of voice are always similar:
- The voice becomes quieter.
- Appears hoarseness.
- The speech becomes less understandable.
- Ill do not speak well.
- With a heavy current appears - aphonia - a complete loss of voice.
- Cough may be present.
Treatment of hoarseness
The first recommendation of doctors is to prescribe a patient's voice rest. The patient should remain silent for most of the day, speak only when absolutely necessary. Drink only warm drinks. Further treatment is aimed at eliminating the underlying disease.If the cause is in the acute respiratory viral infection or influenza, then antiviral drugs are taken and symptomatic to relieve the patient's condition. After the disappearance of the symptoms of the underlying disease, the voice becomes the same. If there is a bacterial infection, then you need to take antibiotics. In the presence of fungal infections, antifungal drugs are prescribed.
If the swelling of the vocal cords is expressed, then antihistamines should be taken.It is better to use drugs 2-3 generations, since they have fewer side effects. Children are most often appointed "Loratadin." If laryngeal stenosis develops, urgent therapy is necessary, sometimes trachyostomy is required.
In the presence of oncological processes in the area of the vocal cords, operations are performed, chemotherapy. With hypothyroidism I prescribe hormone therapy. There are a number of drugs that facilitate the state of dysphonia. These are sprays for the throat: Ingalipt, Geksoral, Miramistin. Tablets for resorption: "Adjicept "Septotelette "Strepsils various solutions for rinsing.
