Vocal fold infections can be mild or severe and are generally not very dangerous. However, when vocal cord infection occurs, the first step is to rest the vocal cords and reduce speech. For example, if you have a cold or an infection, you can slowly recover through symptomatic medication. Repeated inflammation of the vocal cords may lead to vocal cord nodules or vocal cord polyps. If a vocal cord nodule or polyp is formed, it is difficult to recover with medication and may require surgery. In addition, chronic vocal fold inflammation is formed after long-term repeated irritation, and some patients with chronic vocal fold inflammation are at risk of cancer caused by tobacco and alcohol stimulation. During acute inflammation, there is no need to be nervous if there is no significant suffocation. If the degree of suffocation is relatively severe and can cause the risk of suffocation, active medication is required.
