Hi there,
From what you are describing, it sounds like you have experienced some vocal abuse. Unfortunately, I am unable to determine if you have dysphonia at this time. That would require a comprehensive speech evaluation. What I can suggest is that you drink a lot of water to hydrate your vocal cords. Slow down your speech and drink water in between, avoid whispering and straining your voice. Examples include: avoid shouting and raising your voice over loud noises. Therapy could be beneficial to help learn about vocal hygiene and therapeutic exercises.
I hope this helps.
