A member asked:

After intubation, i have become hoarse and have lost my normal voice. what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends : If it has been only a few days give it some time, if it has been a week or more you need to see an ENT doctor for a fiberoptic laryngoscopy. This in office procedure will look at your vocal cords and determine exactly what is going on.
