Question:
My voice is gone and I want it back! I have like 6 hours to get it back. What do I do?
I had a cold, turned to a cough, then my voice left me about 12 hours ago. It's still gone. I've been drinking tea w/ honey but it doesn't seem to be helping. :(
Answers:
I am a speech-pathologist and here are the best tips I can give you...avoid all caffeine (check your tea) including chocolate, soda, coffee, drink lots of water and more water, avoid talking and do not resort to a "harsh" whisper, which is actually worse for your vocal chords. Instead, write anything down you need to say and if you need to get someone's attention in another room, use a whistle. Use a cough suppressent or cough drops. Did i say drink water?? Drink some more and Good luck!
