ive had hoarse/raspy voice for 4 months now. at first it was a whisper but very slowly its gotten better however i cant pitch my voice to any loud level. shouting is impossible and i have a sore throat. i had the symptoms of acid reflux however after an ENT doctor performed an endoscopy he said my left vocal cord was not working at all. i have been sent for a CT scan. has anyone been through this? what can i do to help my vocal cord get better?
