A hoarse voice can have many reasons. Usually, an inflamed larynx is the commonest. This could occur due to a physical injury, sinusitis, a sore throat, a cold or an infection. Your cure would depend upon the reason for your hoarse voice. If you have had an injury of any kind, or smoke inhalation, then you need to simply soothe your throat and provide it rest. Avoid talking too much, have a teaspoon of honey every three hours. This should show good results after a day or so. If you have blocked sinuses, you can unblock them by steaming your entire face with water and a few drops of eucalyptus oil in it. This will clear your sinuses and help get rid of some of the hoarseness. If you have a severe cold and this has resulted in a hoarse voice, you can sip hot tea with a small piece of cinnamon, a few ground peppercorns, a cardamom, lemongrass, ginger and holy basil. This tonic and will instantly open up your voice and make you feel better. Make a paste of holy basil, a few white peppercorns and honey and keep licking this. It will help cure a sore throat. For an infection, drink a hot glass of milk with a couple of pinches of turmeric powder thrown in. This is also a catchall remedy for anything to do with the throat.
