7. Hoarseness
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, or RRP, occurs when benign tumors form in the respiratory tract, such as the throat, voice box or lungs. Hoarseness is the symptom most commonly associated with this type of papilloma. This symptom may develop when the tumors interfere with the normal vibrations of the vocal folds.
RRP is typically more severe in children than adults. In infants and young children, the condition sometimes presents itself as a weak cry.
