A [[physical examination]] can determine whether [[hoarseness]] is caused by a [[respiratory tract infection]]. Patients with lasting [[hoarseness]] (especially smokers) will need to see an [[ear]], [[nose]], and [[throat]] doctor ([[otolaryngologist]]) for tests of the [[throat]] and [[upper airway]].
