What are the causes of a hoarse voice in children?

Answer

A hoarse voice in children refers to a sudden change in voice quality to a hoarse state, often seen as a professional condition. It is common among singers, loud speakers, and those who talk extensively. It is advised to avoid spicy, cold, and irritating foods, and to minimize loud and prolonged talking. During treatment, it is recommended to avoid singing loudly and, in severe cases, to rest the voice for a period of time. Increasing fluid intake can help prevent colds and inflammation of the throat.
