Vocal Cord Nodule
Vocal cord nodules are bilaterally symmetrical Benignity, benign white masses that form at the midpoint of the Vocal cords, vocal folds. Although diagnosis involves a physical examination of the head and neck, as well as perceptual voice measures, visualization of the vocal nodules via laryngeal endoscopy remains the primary diagnostic method.

Other common symptoms include vocal fatigue, soreness or pain lateral to the larynx, and reduced frequency and intensity range. Airflow levels during speech may also be increased. Vocal fold nodules are thought to be the result of vocal fold tissue trauma caused by excessive mechanical stress, i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
