I think you are talking about laryngitis. Let me tell you that for all diseases, the treatment completely depends on the causes of the disease. Similarly, if you or anyone in your family is suffering from laryngitis, then the first step is to combat and curb the underlying causes.



Here are some of the popular natural remedies for laryngitis:
  • Consuming lozenges and sweets is the best possible treatment for laryngitis.
  • Avoid visiting places where you feel irritating especially where there is foul odor or smoke.
  • Aspirin is one of the over the counter medication that helps in alleviating temporarily pain and discomfort caused due to laryngitis.


  • If laryngitis is caused due to viral infection, the immune functions get hampered. Therefore, in such cases it is significant to consume foods that can strengthen immune system and improve immune functions.
  • Infuse flowers and leaves of Malva neglecta or Malva sylvestris in lukewarm water overnight. Extract mucilage and use it as a gargle.
  • There are various herbs and plants that are beneficial for treating laryngitis. The most popular herbs are osha, red sage, tormentil, Echinacea, oak bark, elder flowers, bistort root, raspberry leaves, yarrow, blackberry leaves and American cranesbill. These herbs help in relieving the symptoms of laryngitis and promoting immune functions, thereby increasing body's ability to fight off infections.
