“Hoarseness” is a disease that spreads among people, especially in the winter. It may be an indicator of some serious diseases, including laryngeal cancer.

The Ear, Nose and Throat Clinic at Tübingen University Hospital in Germany said that hoarseness has several causes, some of which are simple and some ofwhich are serious. It can be combated by drinking herbal tea such as chamomile, sage, fennel and thyme with honey.
