Is losing your voice a symptom of bronchitis?

Question

I have every syptom of bronchitis, but I also lost my voice. I was wondering if that was a syptom, or if i maybe have something else. And how can I get my voice back? It's been 3 days!

Answer 1

The symptoms for acute bronchitis are:

Hacking cough.
Yellow, white, or green phlegm, usually appearing 24 to 48 hours after a cough.
Fever, chills.
Soreness and tightness in chest.
Some pain below breastbone during deep breathing
Some shortness of breath
The symptoms for chronic bronchitis are:

Persistent cough producing yellow, white, or green phlegm (for at least three months of the year, and for more than two consecutive years).
Sometimes wheezing, sometimes breathlessness.
Call Your Doctor If:

Your cough is so persistent or severe that it interferes with sleep or daily activities or leads to persistent chest pain; you could be damaging sensitive air sacs in your lungs.
Your symptoms last more than a week, and your mucus becomes darker and thicker, increases in volume, or turns bloody.
You display symptoms of acute bronchitis and have chronic lung or heart problems, or are infected with the virus that causes AIDS; respiratory infections can leave you vulnerable to more serious lung diseases, such as pneumonia.
You have great difficulty breathing. This symptom, sometimes mistakenly associated with bronchitis, could signal asthma, emphysema, tuberculosis, heart disease, a serious allergic reaction, or cancer.

I once suffered from Chronic Bronchitis. I would suffer sometimes 3 to 4 times per year! Usually when there was a major change in the pressure outside (I live in the north, and the temperature spikes and dips do wonders to chronic sufferers of bronchitis!). Each time I would get horrible hacking coughs, hoarking up green phlegm..it was so frustrating!

The key to getting rid of your bronchitis is to find a way to completely eliminate the germs that are causing all the phlegm and irritation leading to your hoarking cough and heavy breathing. Keep reading to learn how to do kill these germs!!

Various things can make you loose your voice: staying up late and talking, not enough sleep in general, weather change, smokey environment of like a club. A cold can do that do, because when you have post nasal drip, mucus drips down and causes the hoarse voice. Try not to talk too much, gargle with salt water, drink tea with lemon. There is nothing else you can really down, it will come back eventually, I know because I lose mind at least 3 times a year. About the bronchitis, you should really go to the doctor, before it gets worse, you need an antibiotic.

To answer your questions, you may also have laryngitis. Resting your voice is the best thing you can do for yourself. Hot drinks, gargling, throat sprays...these things won't work! They will never reach the larynx which is in the uppermost portion of the airway. And if they could, you'd be choking on them. Rest, rest and more rest. You should regain use of your voice as your bronchitis subsides if you rest your vocal cords. If you are still experiencing loss in another 3 days or so, speak to your physician about it.

It's a shame that the person above me posted all that information and none of it addressed your question.

Answer 5

those sound like each and all of the indicators I truthfully have. i went to the er two times now and that they say its acute bronchitis. that's incredibly helpful to bypass to the er or surgeon and have them prescribe an antibiotic to help sparkling it up. the swifter you get dealt with for it, the swifter you will get better. are the chilly pills helping? possibly they might provide you some thing greater desirable to help your indications to boot.

Answer 6
