Hoarseness/Change in voice

Hoarseness refers to a change in your voice – it may sound weak, raspy, breathy, or strained. Common causes include vocal strain, viral infections, acid reflux, or smoking.

If your hoarseness lasts longer than 3 weeks, or is associated with other symptoms like a throat lump, difficulty swallowing, or weight loss, it’s important to see a specialist.

I offer full assessment using a flexible camera to examine your voice box, with treatment options including voice therapy, reflux management, or minor procedures if needed.

Don’t ignore persistent voice changes – early assessment is key.
