Reflux laryngitis
The Department of Otolaryngology, University of Pittsburgh, describes Reflux laryngitis as a voice disorder that results from irritation and swelling of the vocal folds due to the backflow of stomach fluids into the throat.
This backflow, the department said, is called laryngopharyngeal reflux (acid that reaches the level of the throat).
Patients with reflux laryngitis have complaints similar to other voice disorders, making it an easily missed voice disorder.
