Hoarseness is a symptom of laryngitis, an inflammation of the mucous membrane lining the voice box (larynx) that causes swelling of the vocal cords. This acute condition may arise during an upper respiratory infection such as a cold or from overuse of the voice.

In Ayurveda, the throat is thought to be the bridge between the heart and the mind. The role emotion plays in hoarseness.

Your throat muscles express emotions by producing sound; these emotional events are recorded in the muscle tissue. Hoarseness is therefore considered to be a Vata imbalance that dries once someone that has overworked the laryngeal muscles, glands, and organs of the throat.

Hoarse Voice Causes: Chronic laryngitis is usually due to chronic overuse or incorrect use of the voice or smoking. It may also be a sign of serious disease. Therefore chronic laryngitis requires professional evaluation and advice about learning to use vocal cords correctly, or less vocalizing, stopping smoking, or medical treatment.

If laryngitis accompanies other cold symptoms such as a cough or sore throat, refer to those sections in the book for additional information about self-care and Ayurvedic remedies.
