Inflammation of the larynx, known as laryngitis, refers to the swelling and irritation of the laryngeal tissues, often resulting from viral infections, overuse of the voice, or exposure to irritants like smoke. Symptoms typically include hoarseness, a sore throat, and difficulty speaking or breathing. Acute laryngitis usually resolves on its own, while chronic laryngitis may require medical treatment to address underlying causes.
