Throat & Voice Conditions

 

The larynx, commonly referred to as the voice box, is a tube-shaped organ in the neck that's crucial for breathing, swallowing, and producing sound for speech. It houses the vocal cords, which vibrate to make sounds when air is directed against them. Conditions such as laryngitis, vocal cord polyps, nodules, or paralysis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and even certain neurological conditions can lead to changes or issues with the voice, causing symptoms like hoarseness, weak voice, chronic throat clearing, cough, or difficulty swallowing.
