I have a severe cold with a dry cough, and my throat is so sore that I am unable to speak. My voice feels stuck or hoarse. How can I get relief?
Rest your voice and drink warm fluids, such as water, herbal tea, or soup, to keep your throat moist. Gargling with warm saltwater, sucking throat lozenges, or taking honey can help soothe your throat. If your symptoms last more than a few days or get worse, please see a doctor.
