Undergoing radiation treatment for voice box cancer stage 1. why am i loosing my voice during these treatments? will it come back?

Hoarseness: Hoarseness of the voice during radiation treatments is common and occurs more commonly when the vocal cords are in the field of radiation. This should resolve after the treatments are completed. Your Oncologist can provide the best guidance.
