A member asked:

I had strep throat about a month ago and still have some hoarseness to my voice will this eventually go away?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

It should: However, if it persists, or continues to concern you, I would recommend you get checked again to confirm that strep was the only thing causing your sypmtoms and/or that the strep has resolved.

I had a cold that started about ten days ago. I still am not sure if I still have it or if I now have silent reflux. I wake up with a hoarse voice until I blow my nose and loosen phlegm with warm coffee. Then I'm good. Mild dry throat all day?
