It depends how sever is the case. However Numerous herbals can be used to treat laryngitis. Herbal lozenges and throat sprays can provide immediate relief to a raw throat. Herbs that are effective for laryngitis include thyme, horehound, cardamom, plantain, cinnamon, and eucalyptus.

laryngitis can last from a week and the best way to get your voice back is dont talk it buts more strain on the voice box. use salt water to rinse out the mouth and to help speed in the healing of the throat.How did you lose your voice? you just have to be patient for the throat. drink tea will help too.

It can last for several days up to 1 week depends on how much you talk. Frist stop talking and never whisper it will make it worse and damage the vocal cords. Gargle with warm water with a little honey 2 -3 times a day and drink some warm tea to help with the healing. Hope this helps.

Most people who I know had it ... had it for about 1 or even two days.... Be sure to have some good old chicken soup and some good losenges to help speed up the disappearance of laryngitis...
