I had a coughing fit (choking on my own saliva, which seems to happen rather frequently), and now I seem to have lost my voice. Did the coughing do something to my vocal cords?

And to add to what has been said. Vocal rest, ie not speaking, is the best thing you can do to allow the swollen, tissue of the vocal folds to normalize. Also do not whisper as it makes things worse bc whispering requires a lot of vocal fold tension which you do not want. retired speech therapist
