How causes a suddenly husky voice?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Various: Sudden husky voice can be from many factors, the most common of which are viral infections, acid reflux, and trauma from yelling. If you smoke then a husky voice can be more worrisome. Anyone who has a husky voice (hoarseness) for more than 2 weeks should be seen by an ENT to have their voice box directly examined to make sure there are not any more concerning problems.
