Otolaryngologist, autoneurologist Olga Malchenko said that due to the high activity of the flu, when it quickly spreads throughout the body or due to non-surgical treatment, a person can lose his voice. It has been reported URA.RU.
According to him, there is a possibility of losing your voice in any viral infection. This can happen during the transition of inflammation from the upper respiratory tract, nose, throat to the vocal cords.
Malchenko emphasized that this happens when the virus is quite active, spreading rapidly throughout the human body.
“Another option is to start treatment late. And the virus is spreading to the respiratory tracts by means of slowly descending paths,” said the doctor.
He added that the current flu virus is very aggressive and contagious.
Former Director of the Epidemiology and Microbiology Research Center named after VI. NF Gamalei Alexander Gintsburg saidhoarseness and voice change are characteristic symptoms of influenza B.
He also said that the symptoms of influenza B are similar to other respiratory diseases: the inflammatory process begins in the nasopharynx, then goes to the bronchi and lungs.
