Laryngitis Treatment
Many essential oils can be used in effective Laryngitis treatment because of their natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties.
They have the ability to stop the growth of bacteria and viruses while at the same time, calm the inflammation and remove mucous and phlegm from your lungs, bronchioles and vocal chords.
As a bonus, many oils can boost the immune system and help repair damaged tissue.

What is Laryngitis?
Laryngitis is an infection or inflammation of your vocal chords that can occur following or along with an infection in your respiratory system.
Some of the symptoms can include:
- Difficult breathing
- Dry cough
- Fever
- Hoarseness
- Inflamed vocal chords
- Lethargy
- Need to clear throat
- Raw Throat
- Weak voice
Check with your doctor if symptoms of laryngitis persist longer than 2 weeks.
Of course, obtain immediate medical attention if symptoms begin to threaten your ability to breathe, present a high fever or cause any bleeding.
What Causes Condition?
This condition often occurs as a result of a viral infection which may come from another condition such as a acid reflux, cold, flu or bronchitis.
Many people can experience a bout of laryngitis after attending a sporting event or concert because of straining their voice yelling or cheering.
You can suffer from chronic laryngitis if you drink excessively, smoke or often inhale irritating chemical fumes or allergens. Air pollution is known to be a common cause.
Even inhaling steroid medications may be a trigger for laryngitis.
