A member asked:
Im constantly clearing my throat & have recently noticed that my voice is a lot more raspy. any ideas/suggestions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clearing throat: Stop clearing throat. This irritates the mucosa and causes more secretions, Swallow instead. No smoking (anything). Limit or DC alcohol. Rest voice for a few day. Take prilosec 20mg twice a day for three weeks. See ENT if not improved
