Treatment for Vocal Cord Paralysis (Vocal Paresis)
Definition:
Vocal Cord Paralysis (also known as vocal fold paresis) occurs when one or both vocal cords/folds are non-functional. Vocal cord paresis causes a decrease in vocal cord mobility, which, in turn, will impact one’s ability to speak and, nevertheless, to sing.
Vocal fold paresis is also the result of abnormal nerve input to the muscles within the voice box. When it concerns the human body, “Paralysis” means a complete interruption of nerve impulses that cause minimal to no movement for any given body part. In the case of the disruption of the human voice, vocal cord paralysis is the result of nerve interruption within the parts of the voice box, causing the vocal cords to malfunction, or not to function at all.
Paresis can happen to anyone and at any age for different reasons. The effect on patients that suffer from this problem will depend on their lifestyles. Even a mild condition of vocal paresis can greatly affect a person’s normal life, let alone a professional speaker or singer.
Explanation:
Vocal fold movements result from the coordinated configuration of various muscles being controlled by the brain through a specific set of nerves. The superior laryngeal nerve carries signals to the cricothyroid muscle. This muscle adjusts the tension of the vocal folds.
Symptoms:
Symptoms of vocal cord paresis may affect one’s ability to swallow: and thus, a clear excess of mucus is produced due to coughing and sneezing.
