Epiglottis cyst surgery does not involve the vocal cords, so there is usually no need for vocal abstinence after surgery. After surgery, it may be appropriate to speak less due to wound pain.
An epiglottis cyst is an obstruction of the epiglottis mucosa and mucous gland ducts, which causes mucus to be trapped in them and eventually forms a cystic mass. Surgery is the main clinical treatment, the wound does not involve the vocal cords and does not affect the vocal parts of the larynx, so there is no need for vocal abstinence after epiglottis cyst surgery.
After epiglottis cyst surgery, the diet should be semi-liquid, the temperature should not be too hot, avoid spicy and stimulating food, and do not eat food with thorns and bones. Generally, after about two weeks after the operation, the wound of epiglottis cyst gradually heals, and the patient can have a normal diet.
After the surgery, the patient can talk appropriately and avoid excessive use of the voice.
