How to protect your voice

Hoarse is a common problem for people who need to talk for a long time or use their voice incorrectly. If the hoarseness persists for more than two weeks, it is best to find an otolaryngologist for examination and treatment. Generally speaking, silence is the best treatment for hoarseness. As for the long cocoon of vocal cords, there is no need for surgery. You can do speech therapy first. When the nodule is too large or the speech therapy is ineffective, laryngeal endoscopic microsurgery must be performed.

Here are some tips for protecting your voice in daily life:

1) Limit the speaking time outside work, and reduce unnecessary long chats or phone calls.

2) Speak at an appropriate volume, and make good use of the microphone to cope with the lack of volume.

3) Speak slowly, pause and inhale frequently between speeches, and don't lengthen a word.

4) The tone of speech should not be too low or too high, and the stress of each sentence should not be prefixed.

5) Whispering is an incorrect way of speaking.

6) When talking for a long time, drink plenty of warm water to keep your throat moist.

7) Try to speak easily with your abdomen (that is, Dantian), and don't talk with your chest or tense your neck muscles.

8) Don't smoke or drink, and don't eat spicy and fried foods, such as strong tea, coffee, peppers, chocolate and cold drinks.

9) Avoid forcibly clearing throat and coughing.

Get enough sleep and don't eat too much before going to bed.

Exercise properly and keep a happy and relaxed mood at all times.

12) When you have a cold, talk as little as possible. At this time, you should drink more warm water and maintain your vocal cords.

13) throat lozenge, Siraitia grosvenorii, loquat cream or Peng Hai.

So how do you protect your voice? The experts made the following suggestions:

1. Drink plenty of water and avoid drinking alcohol and coffee. Keeping the water balance in the body can fully moisturize the vocal cords.

2, don't smoke, even passive smoking should be avoided, because smoking will significantly increase the risk of laryngeal cancer.

Don't use your voice too much. Don't scream, don't talk loudly in noisy places. If you feel dry or hoarse, stop talking. Keep your voice normal, neither too high nor too low, and whispering is not good for protecting your voice.

4. Don't clear your throat too much. Because when you do this, the air will vibrate the vocal cords violently, thus damaging the vocal cords. If you feel a sore throat, take a sip of water or swallow it. But if you have to clear your throat all the time, go and see a doctor. It may be reflux disease, allergies and other diseases.

When your voice is hoarse because of a cold or infection, try not to talk.

The throat is not only the only way for normal breathing, but also an important sound generator. So everyone should pay attention to protecting their voices, especially teachers, actors and announcers.

First of all, we should pay attention to outdoor activities, enhance the body's defense against diseases, and avoid pharyngitis and laryngitis.

The second is to develop the habit of throat hygiene. Rinse your mouth with clear water before and after meals, drink more tea at ordinary times and keep your throat clean. Smoking and drinking should be moderate, otherwise it will stimulate the throat and produce chronic inflammation.

If the throat is uncomfortable, itchy, dry or burning, hot fumigation can be used. The way is to breathe into a hot cup or teapot with your mouth, which will soon make the discomfort disappear. You can also pour about 30 ml of compound benzoin tincture into a vat filled with about 500 ml of boiling water and breathe in the hot air. You can use chrysanthemum, honeysuckle or boat-fruited Sterculia as tea.
