Hot toddy - whiskey, lemon, warmed up. I hate whiskey but most people seem to say that works.
Strepsils for me though, I'm a good girl.

When you have a cold your trachea gets inflamed causing tracheitis, one of the best solutions is breathing in hot steam, get a bucket and fill it with hot water and then put a towel over your head and breathe in the steam, its also good for your skin :smile:

Have you got a sore throat? If nothing hurts then it could be laryngitis.

Listerine antiseptic gargle, clears it up in 1-2 hours.

Aww I'm sorry!!! Don't worry it's not really scary at all, and I don't think you'd need to go to a doctor if it was. When I had it I tried not to talk and I think I still had throat sweets and hot lemon.
I hope you feel better soon! :smile:

Oh, actually- manuka honey can be good.

Because smoking is such a good idea.

Cigarette smoke made me lose my voice once. Couldn't talk properly for about 4 days. OP, rest your voice, lots of warm drinks and definitely don't sing!! If possible, don't talk at home.
