3GERD
GERD or gastroesophageal reflux disease can also a cause of laryngitis in many people. Indeed, this is the most common trigger of chronic laryngitis. People with this health issue often have a backflow of their stomach acids to the mouth and esophagus. As they breathe, the liquid contents might be inadvertently aspirated, which can irritate the larynx. As a result, chronic irritation will lead to swelling of your vocal cords and change the voice. You can treat GERD easily with some prescription medications and dietary changes. However, make sure to consult your doctor before starting any treatment option. [3]
