What to do about acute laryngitis
Disease description:
I have a friend who was hospitalized due to a recurrence of acute laryngitis. I would like to ask how this condition is treated?

Hello, the main causes of acute laryngitis are infections, allergies, and frequent, forceful coughing, which lead to significant edema of the vocal cords. Therefore, using sensitive antibiotics according to the specific cause is very important. Administration through an intravenous route and appropriate systemic use of glucocorticoids are recommended. Once acute laryngitis occurs, it can cause narrowing of the glottic space; severe cases may result in difficulty breathing, and even life-threatening airway obstruction. I hope my answer helps you. Wishing you good health.
