Incase of laryngitis it is wise to inhale warm steam from boiling water; this will help in faster recovery by moisturizing your vocal cords. Avoid gargling as the warm salt water does not reach the vocal box, and instead the voice of gargling leaves the vocal cords in a more irritated state. Besides this try these simple home remedies for laryngitis -

  • Make a tea by boiling grated ginger with honey, and lemon in water.


    Drink this to help soothe your vocal cords.
  • Slippery elm bark tea is also a good home remedy for laryngitis.
  • Emphasize on warm liquids; include warm water, vegetable soups / chicken broths, and herbal teas.


    Drink more water to keep your larynx moist.
  • Avoid the allergen if you are allergic to any stuff. Completely avoid smoking and alcohol.
  • Speak less. Give some rest to your voice box. Whispering can cause more harm, so talk instead of whispering.
