    Laryngitis is when your vocal cords have been damaged by infection or coughing. Yes, strep throat can cause this if the infection spreads, but hopefully you would be on antibiotics by then. Once you are on antibiotics, it is unlikely that you will get laryngitis. Most cases of laryngitis are caused by severe, relentless coughing from bronchitis, asthma, or pneumonia. There is unfortunately nothing you can do for laryngitis except take your antibiotics, rest, and drink plenty of fluids. Hope this helps!
