Wet Voice

While some patients with dysphagia have a hoarse voice, others find that their voice sounds more "wet", especially after eating or drinking. Similar to a hoarse voice, friends of the patient could be the first to notice this symptom.

While hoarseness is more typical of a wide variety of throat issues, a "wet" voice can be more distinctive. If patients find that their voice changes significantly every time they have something to eat or drink, they should bring it to the attention of a doctor.
