Answers:

Talk to your doctor and get a proper diagnosis before trying any treatment .

There are medical treatments that are available for various voice disorders. Some of the common ones are listed here with explanations. Some of these disorders will also have surgical options.


Vocal overdoers -People who like to talk and typically suffer from swellings on the vocal folds, also commonly called vocal nodules or vocal polyps.

Vocal underdoers - People who don’t talk much and typically suffer from thinning or atrophy of the vocal folds, also commonly called bowing or presbyphonia. A partial recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis can do the same thing.

Dystonia - Spasmodic dysphonia belongs to a family of neurologic disorders called dystonias. Spasmodic dysphonia may sound like a choking off or a whispery voice. Also called SD or ADductor SD or ABductor SD. It is often associated with vocal tremor.

Vocal Hyperfunction - This term covers several different types of disorders and includes muscle tension dysphonia (MTD).

Muscle tension dysphonia -This term is often used interchangeably with Hyperfunction.

Reflux- Hoarseness caused by stomach acid reaching the voice box. Also called Esophageal reflux or GERD.

Lump in the throat- The sensation of a lump in the throat. Also called globus or globus hystericus or cricopharyngeal spasm.

Laryngospasm-The 30 seconds of cutting off of breathing where you feel like you are going to die. Breathing in sounds ghastly, but somehow you start getting air again.

P.S .There is a seemingly pervasive belief that all or nearly all voice disorders are caused by reflux.
