Throat and voice care
Persistent throat symptoms or changes in voice deserve careful assessment, particularly when they affect swallowing, speaking or day-to-day comfort.
Common concerns
- Recurrent tonsil problems
- Persistent sore throat
- Hoarseness or voice fatigue
- Globus or lump sensation
- Reflux-related throat irritation
- Swallowing concerns
Evaluation
The consultation may include examination of the mouth, throat and neck, with further visualization of the voice box when indicated.
Treatment
Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may involve medication, vocal care, reflux management, speech/voice therapy referral or surgical discussion when needed.
