I have gotten laryngitis countless times in just the past few years. What I quickly learned is the more I force myself to talk (or whisper) in these days, the worse it gets. It will take longer for the area to heal.

I have GERD, which is reflux. In my case, it happens in the esophagus affecting my voice (and teeth). Most other symtoms don't occur in these kinds of cases. Sick and yucky, but I've had stuff (fluids & acid) flow up into my mouth several times while I was awake. YUCK! Even worse, was that my laryngitis not understood or cared for properly, and I developed esophagitis. (Very painful open sore inside the esophagus from the burning acids.)

In my experience, I sure wouldn't wait until next month to call an ENT specialist. You should not have laryngitis for that long ~ unless you are really pushing yourself to talk & not letting the area heal properly. I would recommend looking into gastroesophageal reflux disorder, and see if any of those symptoms sound familiar to you.

Best wishes to you!
