If a child has a hoarse voice, avoid overusing the vocal cords—speak softly and minimize talking. Drink plenty of water to keep the throat moist, and适量饮用 chrysanthemum tea or pear juice may also help. If the hoarseness is caused by a cold or inflammation, take traditional Chinese medicines that clear the throat and soothe the voice as directed by a doctor. Also, ensure adequate rest and avoid spicy or irritating foods. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention promptly to determine the cause and receive targeted treatment.
