Hoarseness due to inflammation of the throat caused by fire

  Voice training treatment management is a one-on-one articulation therapy with the patient after a systematic assessment of the patient’s voice. The first step of the treatment is to carefully analyze the patient’s comprehensive examination results and develop a treatment plan. Based on the process of articulation, the causes of voice disorders, and the characteristics of the disease, the patient’s breathing, articulation, and resonance problems are analyzed and the right remedy is prescribed. We will reshape the correct way of pronunciation to make the voice stronger, richer, and more penetrating.  Many people suffer from oral diseases after fire, such as swollen and sore gums, mouth ulcers, etc. Fire and cold can also cause hoarseness and other complications. It is understood that laryngitis caused by fire and cold is transient and relatively easy to recover from. Other causes of inflammation of the vocal cords, such as eating a lot of spicy food, excessive fatigue and loud talking, can cause hoarseness. If you don’t pay attention to this, you will miss the favorable time for treatment, and your voice will probably be an unpleasant “big smoke voice”.  According to statistics, about 50% of patients with hoarseness (referred to as “hoarseness”) are clinically caused by inflammation of the vocal cords, 10% are caused by vocal cord polyps, and a small number of patients have hoarseness caused directly by benign or malignant tumors of the larynx, and these patients often miss the best time for treatment due to lack of vigilance. Therefore, when the symptoms of hoarseness appear, especially long-term chronic hoarseness, should be given sufficient attention.  The voice is produced by the vibration of the vocal cords, and hoarseness refers to the loss of the normal mellow and clear sound quality, becoming sandy, mute and hoarse, and in serious cases, it can even lead to the inability of the vocal cords to vibrate, or poor vibration and no sound, that is, loss of voice.  Inflammation of the vocal cords is the most common cause of hoarseness. When the body’s resistance is lowered due to excessive smoking, alcohol, spicy food stimulation, cold, and fatigue, viruses and bacteria can easily cause upper respiratory tract infections, which can lead to inflammation of the vocal cords and subsequently cause hoarseness. Some patients suffer from inflammation of the vocal cords due to improper vocalization or excessive use of the voice, especially in professions where the voice is used more, such as teachers, actors, and tour guides. In addition, due to air pollution, the human body inhales too much dust and harmful gases, which can also cause inflammation of the vocal cords leading to hoarseness.  Vocal fold nodules and vocal fold polyps (polyp-like tissue that occurs in the vocal folds) are also one of the common causes of hoarseness, which can affect the vibration of the vocal folds and is mostly caused by improper or excessive vocalization, and can also be secondary to upper respiratory tract infections.  Laryngeal tumor is one of the most neglected and important causes of hoarseness. Long-term excessive smoking and drinking, severe air pollution in the living environment, viral infection of the larynx, and chronic inflammatory stimulation of the vocal cords can lead to laryngeal tumors, such as laryngeal cancer. There are usually no other typical symptoms in early stage of laryngeal cancer, most patients only have mild hoarseness in early stage, which gradually worsens in later stage and finally even lose their voice completely; it is also often accompanied by coughing, coughing sputum, blood in sputum, and breathing difficulty in late stage. Many laryngeal cancer patients do not pay attention to the hoarseness in early stage and do not go to hospital until they have difficulty in breathing, which misses the best treatment time.  Develop good habits to find a good voice Although there are many hidden dangers behind voice hoarseness, it can be prevented by correcting wrong habits. First of all, we should pay attention to the scientific use of voice and avoid using it excessively. Especially for those who often use their voices in special occupations, as well as for teenagers during voice change and women during menstruation and pregnancy, it is important to avoid speaking loudly to give your vocal cords a full rest; avoid getting cold and flu, and when the weather is cold, you can tie a silk scarf to protect your throat; usually drink more water, eat a light diet, don’t eat spicy and stimulating food, and quit smoking, drinking, staying up late and other bad habits; more Open the window to breathe fresh air, try not to stay in places with serious air pollution for a long time, when the air is bad, you can wear a dust mask when you go out.  Once you have hoarseness, especially long-term chronic hoarseness, you should not take it lightly and go to a professional voice center in time to have a professional examination of your voice if necessary to avoid delays.  It should be reminded that many patients who suffer from vocal fold inflammation, vocal fold polyps, and other diseases with symptoms of hoarseness think that they only need to take antibiotics, which is actually a misconception. The best treatment for acute and chronic vocal fold inflammation is “vocal rest”, that is, try to speak less, do not shout, so that the vocal folds get sufficient rest, and in serious cases need to go to a professional voice treatment voice open sound pill also has a certain therapeutic effect. The occurrence of vocal fold nodules and vocal fold polyps is mostly related to the occupation people are engaged in. In addition to vocal rest, nebulization, herbal treatment, drinking more water and keeping good habits, this part of patients should also pay attention to the correct way of pronunciation when speaking. If the above conservative treatment is not effective, surgical treatment and related voice training exercises can be considered.
