Swearing vehemently also seems help (but is less elegant). Are you able to get out for a walk in the park or just on your street? Walking our dog was VERY theraputic for my husband.
It was well over a month for him to be vaguely comfortable speaking, it is was pretty raspy for a good while after that, so I'm pretty sure that time will help you.
Hugs from Ohio to you.
