Inflammation of the larynx, i.e. voice box, is referred to as laryngitis. Laryngitis can arise from various reasons, and first among these is infection that can be viral, bacterial, or fungal. Overuse of voice, excessive yelling, allergies, acid reflux disease, smoking and alcohol intake are some other causes. Laryngitis can be acute or chronic. Short-term laryngitis of less than 3 weeks’ duration is termed as acute laryngitis. If the problem lasts more than 3 weeks, it is termed long- term or chronic laryngitis. A major symptom of laryngitis is hoarseness of the voice. Other symptoms are dry/sore/raw throat, cough, difficulty swallowing, need to repeatedly clear the throat, and tickling in the throat.
Homeopathic medicines can treat laryngitis wonderfully. Both acute and chronic laryngitis can be effectively treated under the homeopathic system of medicine. Homeopathic medicines work to reduce the inflammation of larynx remarkably along with aiding relief in its symptoms. It helps to manage its symptoms like hoarse voice, throat dryness, tickling in larynx and cough. After managing the symptoms, homeopathic medicines further aim to provide complete cure in laryngitis cases which occur gradually in a few months depending on the intensity and chronicity of the complaint.
Homeopathy fixes the root cause behind laryngitis to aid great cures. As laryngitis can arise from different reasons, homeopathy makes sure to treat the cause which is the key to get complete cure. Homeopathy works by stimulating the self-healing forces of the body to overcome the reason behind inflamed larynx to get natural and complete recovery.
As homeopathy is a symptom-based science, the homeopathic prescription for laryngitis varies from case to case as per the individual symptom presentation. A detailed case-taking is done to note down all the symptoms explained by the patient. Afterwards, it is evaluated as per homeopathic laws by a homeopathic doctor. Based on the evaluation, homeopathic medicine is finalised along with its potency and dosage. A proper course of well-prescribed homeopathic treatment helps to resolve laryngitis completely.
Homeopathic medicines to treat laryngitis are natural, safe and free from adverse side effects. Homeopathic medicines set off the body’s own restorative processes to enable it to fight off the disease and heal itself naturally.

I have been suffering from laryngitis and dry cough with pain in chest and cough since 3 weeks now. I had taken allopathic treatment but to no avail.
Then i started with homeopathic treatment. First I had taken combination of arsenic album200, Dalcamara 200 and spongia 200.But hardly effect.
Then belladonna 200 but hardly any improvement.
then switched over to Stannum metallicum and spongia 200. My voice got improved with the same and pain reduced in chest and throat. But around diwali problem arose again due to pollution and smoke I think. Then doctor changed my medicine to hepar sulphur200 and echinacea angustifolio, Its been 3 days since I have been taking this medicine. Improvement is there but very slow. Shall I continue with the same?
