When is a scratchy throat more than a scratchy throat?

Help!!!!

I'm in the middle of a show that performs on weekends only. Its a very vocally challenging show, and after opening weekend my throat hurt. Now, two weeks later, my throat is still scratchy and my voice is incredibly hoarse. I sound like I have bad morning voice all day long. I am unable to sing out of my low range, and if I try no sound comes out. I feel fine everywhere else, just my voice. I have been drinking tea with honey and sucking on throat drops constantly. Is this something to be worried about? COuld it just be overworked?

Thank you

I wouldn't be one to ask. I have a sore throat right now, actually, though it's because I'm sick.

It could be that your voice is overworked. Though, if it has been two weeks, you might want to see a doctor and make sure nothing's wrong.

I just got over that problem and had to sing such songs as No good Deed, Defying Gravity, My Strongest Suit, etc.

Don't work it anymore - let it rest (I took off)

lol robbie.

I'd go to a doctor just to be 100% sure. Do take some time off, too.

exactly what MJR says.

yah, go to a docter first, and try Grether's pastils. They're really good for scratchy thoats and if your voice is hoarse. alot of people use them, like Sutton Foster and Barbara Steisand.
