Vocalization is the process of transforming a child’s voice into an adult’s voice, which usually occurs during puberty. Shouting during the vocalization period may cause acute laryngitis, chronic laryngitis, and vocal cord nodules, among other diseases.
1. Acute laryngitis: when shouting during the period of voice change, the excessive vocalization will cause severe friction on the local joints and vocal ligaments, resulting in congestion and edema of the vocal cords, leading to hoarseness and sore throat symptoms.
2. Chronic laryngitis: After shouting at this time, the mucous membrane of the larynx changes after acute laryngitis, the mucous membrane changes from dark red to grayish-blue and thickening, and the secretion of the glands decreases, resulting in hoarseness, coughing, and a foreign body sensation in the throat, and other symptoms.
3. Vocal cord nodules: Long-term shouting during the period of change of voice can also cause damage to the vocal cords due to excessive vocalization, and because of the frequent impact of the voice caused by local vasodilatation, resulting in increased permeability after the emergence of exudate, hyperplasia and fibrosis, the emergence of vocal cord nodules.
Children are advised to use their voices reasonably to avoid inducing negative consequences. If the symptoms such as hoarseness and sore throat do not subside after shouting and screaming during the period of voice change, they can actively consult a doctor for a clear diagnosis after a systematic examination and standardized treatment in accordance with the doctor’s instructions.
