I've had a croaky throat on and off for a week (although my husband has noticed it for a while if I'm tired).
What could be the cause of this? Should I be worried? I'm 25, never smoked. It's just a bit annoying. I had a look on google and didn't like what I read.
Sqad's usually about first thing in the morning, missC - if he doesn't reply tonight, try a reminder then!
Seriously though - go to the doctor. There's a disclaimer on the Health section here. Whether you smoke or not, if you are worried, that's the place to go.
Secondly a "croaky voice" o and off for a week is no big deal. It may well be due to voice abuse (shouting, excess talking or singing), it may be a mild upper respiratory tract infection or as you say a mild allergy (grass pollen etc)
My advice......do nothing......monitor the situation for the next fortnight.
