I lost my voice singing during a church event and normally I can sing just about anything. When I lost it I took some advice from someone and I think i messed it up worse. I was told to take hot sauce and gargle with it so I did and since have not been able to sing and still have periodic moments of whispers when trying to speak. HELP!!!!! I don't know what to do. Normally when I loose my voice it get it back w/in a week or so. This is the longest time frame. Open to all suggestions.

Everyone has their own rate at which they heal so it is hard to tell you how long healing is going to take.
Gargle with warm salt water 2-3 times aday and DO NOT talk for a few days.(Over use of salt water can cause more damage than good.)
After a few days of this home remedy,you can gradually try to speak from a whisper to full volume.
In the future,prior to singing I would suggest that you gargle with the warm salt water to help prepare and loosen your vocal chords.

obviously you've overextended your voice, and the best thing I can say is to keep you voice at a low tone when u do talk (because it's inevitable that u have to talk), and make sure that u have a pad around to write things down when talking would be excessive. Let your voice rest because (and it can only do that if you shut up!!) Go to about.com and get some remedies to help recover ur voice!

Have some tea with honey. Rest and don't try to talk for a while. Also try to gargle with salt and water. Good luck!
