Warning Signs Of Laryngitis

Full Feeling In The Throat

A full feeling in the throat is one of the earliest symptoms of laryngitis, and it occurs most often in cases where laryngitis is not associated with a cold or another type of infection. The fullness in the throat can cause minor discomfort, and it may be especially irritating while the patient is trying to eat, drink, or speak. Patients with this symptom may want to keep a journal to record whether the sensation of fullness worsens, and it can be helpful to note any foods and drinks that have been consumed as well. Since fullness in the throat could be a sign of an underlying condition, patients should see a doctor if this symptom persists for more than two weeks, or if it gets worse.
