Definition
Hoarseness is a voice disorder characterized by a rough, raspy, or strained vocal quality, often resulting from inflammation, overuse, or irritation of the vocal cords. This condition can cause difficulties in speaking clearly and may be associated with underlying medical issues such as laryngitis, vocal cord nodules, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
