Herbal Remedy For Vocal Cord Palsy
Abstract
Human beings have a vocal cord which is also known as the voice box or vocal folds and their folded tissue in the throat. These folds are the main key of producing sounds and the size of our vocal cords are responsible for the pitch of voice. They open and vibrate while breathing, speaking or singing which is controlled through the vagus nerve. Vocal cord is also responsible for protecting the airway from getting choked and regulating the flow of air. If this vocal cord becomes paralyzed then it might lead to serious problems. Here in this article we are going to discuss Vocal cord palsy in detail and its management through herbal medicine.
What is Vocal Cord Palsy
Vocal cord paralysis is the disorder of voice where both folds of the vocal cord do not close or open properly. It is very rare to see paralysis of both the folds and this can also lead to a life-threatening situation. These vocal cords are found in the larynx and are above the windpipe which helps us in breathing as well as other things. When the vocal fold gets paralyzed then the folds might remain open making the lungs as well as air passage unprotected. This might also make it difficult to swallow things whether it’s liquid or solid. This then can result in accidentally swallowing lungs resulting in dangerous health issues. Some problems resulting in this health issue are viral infection, cancer or surgery.
