I rarely get sick, but am pretty sure I got covid a month ago. Basically 2 weeks of sick, nothing huge but at one point basically had no voice. Now its a month later and I still have lost like half my singing range. My voice just cracks out if I try.

Hope its temporary but I dont know. Anyone else get this?

      You just gotta get back on that dick and keep sucking dick till you get back to your default dick sucking ability.

    It can take some time to recover. Make sure your body has the correct nutrients to restore the damage done. Check your diet for balance, can be useful to supplement certain molecules like Omega3, NAC (helps to create and solute mucus). Make sure you have antioxidants available, Ginger, Turmeric etc. - Stay active, rest enough. Time heals all wounds.

    Yes, laryngitis is a known possible effect of Covid. If it doesn’t seem to be coming back after two weeks, I would suggest a doctor if you can, maybe even an ENT specialist specifically.

    Stay hydrated, eat well, go easy on your voice, cough drops, etc. Beyond that generic advice, especially if you’re a singer, don’t fuck around with dumb advice from Internet strangers. I saw someone during the depths of Covid recommend shots of olive oil to “lube” the vocal chords; replies were from people who did it and gave themselves the shits.
