Overview
If left untreated, generally acute laryngitis will naturally resolve between 3-7 days.[1] Common complications of laryngitis include mild throat pain. Prognosis for laryngitis is generally excellent; there is no known mortality rate.
Natural History
If left untreated, generally acute laryngitis will naturally resolve between 3-7 days. Acute cases which progress to chronic conditions are generally associated with rare pathogen.[1]
Complications
Common complications of laryngitis include mild throat pain. Rare complications of acute laryngitis include vocal cord damage and severe respiratory distress. Rare complications of chronic laryngitis include aphonia, chronic cough, and laryngeal stenosis.[2]
Prognosis
Prognosis for laryngitis is generally excellent; there is no known mortality rate.
