What could be the reason why my voice is hoarse?

Okay, for the past 3 or 4 days my voice has been hoarse. I smoke but stopped and do it again. And i also cough bad because of the fact i have smoker's cough. Do you think that could be the reason? And i keep trying to clear my throat. I am actually worried. Could it be a disease?

No trolls please!

    It could be a lot of things. You may have been putting a lot of strain on your voice-any yelling, singing, or loud noises could have caused this. You also may have the start of a cold or having symptoms for allergies. Try taking some throat drops to soothe your throat. Also, drinking extra water could help incase you are dehydrated and don't realize it. And lastly, of course try to cut back on the smoking because that will only hurt your irritated throat.
