A member asked:

I havent been able to talk for a week, but my singing voice has been unaffected and i can laugh with no problems at all. what is wrong with me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Laryngitis: It certainly sounds like a form of laryngitis. Are you a professional singer? You could have inflammation around your voice box. This usually resolves over 2-3 weeks. If it persists you should see an ENT doctor to evaluate your vocal cords.
