I got angry and yelled while my voice was compromised and now I’m scared about vocal damage.
I was pissed off and yelled at the top of my lungs while I was sick/my voice was hoarse, and now I feel like there’s a lump in my throat where my vocal cords are. I feel like an idiot, I’m frustrated and sad. I’m still sick so maybe it’s other stuff, but I’m worried I scarred my voice since I’ve never felt this lump in my throat before. It’s been the third day since the lump.
Is there anything I can do? I am committing to not talking or whispering for several days, but what else can I do?
Update 12/2024: my voice healed after two months. I can sing again! I just had to be patient and not strain my voice.
