Can throat thrush cause hoarseness in your voice?

Dr. Axel Martinez-Irizarry answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Yes.: Thrush is caused by a fungal infection, usually candidia sp.., it can spread down your pharynx, and even reach your larynx, which could cause hoarseness if it is affected. Treatment is available (antifungals), see your physician, and get it treated.
