Infections with RSV involve symptoms of the respiratory tract. When there is something wrong with this mechanism, we might experience hoarseness. Those with an RSV infection might develop a particular type of hoarse voice. This symptom indicates an upper respiratory tract infection. Young and adult patients can develop hoarseness of voice. It typically will take days to regain their hoarse voice. This is associated with various different signs/symptoms of RSV infection.
When hoarse, you cannot make high-frequency sounds. Your hoarse voice is due to a larynx disorder that is affecting the flow of air coming from your lungs. The larynx, which produces sound, is found at the top of the respiratory tract. Thus, the failure can be identified quickly. So, if you have hoarseness and — other symptoms that might point to an RSV infection — let your doctor know.
