A member asked:

My 2 year old son has had a very "hoarse" voice for almost 6 months, i am concerned it has been this way for way too long. what could be causing this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vocal cord nodules: You should take your son to see an ent. Vocal cord nodules can be treated with speech therapy, or with surgical interventions if the problem does not respond to speech therapy. They are almost always benign.
