So, I just searched up some answers from the internet. Here they are

How can I get my voice back in 5 minutes?

Depending on the cause, you may be able to get your voice back quickly by drinking warm water, breathing in humid air, or gargling salt water. In some cases, you may need to rest your voice for longer or get medical treatment.

How long does it take to get my voice back?

How long it takes to get your voice back depends on the underlying cause. For example, if you lose your voice due to laryngitis, it could take 3-7 daysTrusted Source or longer to get it back. That said, vocal rest, drinking warm liquids, and breathing in steam may help you get it back quicker.

Takeaway

You can typically relieve voice loss at home by resting your voice, staying hydrated, and avoiding irritants. You can also try inhaling steam and using a humidifier to soothe your throat and voice box. A doctor may recommend speech therapy if your lost voice results from causes like vocal nodules or dysphonia.

honey helps a lot. If by any chance you have the thieves essential oil put a drop straight in your throat. Works like a charm.

I don’t think putting essential oils in your mouth is a good idea…

Yeah, that won’t be a good idea. It can cause respiratory issues and irritate the skin and stomach.
