Vocal cord nodules are symmetric, mid-vocal fold lesions that occur due to physical stresses on the vocal folds from heavy voice use. They cause hoarseness by impairing vocal fold closure and vibration during voicing. Nodules appear in pairs and resemble mounds of tissue protruding from the vocal folds. While voice rest and steroids can reduce swelling, voice therapy is the primary treatment to develop healthier voice use techniques. Surgery may be considered in severe, longstanding cases not improving with therapy. Nodules require ongoing management rather than a one-time "fix" and do not necessarily end a singing career if properly treated.
This document discusses various conditions affecting the ear, including:
1. Labyrinthitis, which causes sudden attacks of vertigo, tinnitus, vomiting and unilateral hearing loss.
2. Autoimmune inner ear disease (AIED), which results in bilateral fluctuating and progressive sensorineural hearing loss due to the immune system attacking the inner ear.
3. Age-related hearing loss, which produces alterations in the auditory system and is characterized by difficulty understanding speech.
Vocal nodules, also known as singer's nodes or screamer's nodes, are benign growths that develop on the vocal cords due to vocal trauma from prolonged periods of speaking at unnatural low tones or high intensities. They most commonly affect teachers, actors, vendors, pop singers, and school-going children who are too assertive and talkative. Pathologically, vocal abuse or misuse causes edema, hemorrhaging, and fibrosis in the vocal cord tissue, forming hardened nodules on the free edge of the vocal cords at their point of maximum vibration. Patients experience hoarseness of voice, vocal fatigue, and neck pain with prolonged phonation. Treatment involves voice therapy and re-education for mild cases

Vocal cord nodules and its homeopathic treatmentShewta shetty
Vocal cord nodules are benign growths on the vocal cords that cause hoarseness, breathiness, and other voice problems. They develop from overuse of the voice through activities like singing, shouting, or smoking. Common symptoms include hoarseness, low pitch, pain, and fatigue. Treatment may involve biopsy and homeopathic remedies to address the whole constitution, as nodules can sometimes develop into cancer if underlying genetic and lifestyle factors aren't addressed.
Laryngitis is an inflammation of the larynx or voice box that can be caused by viral or bacterial infection, chemical irritation, or vocal overuse. Common symptoms include hoarseness, coughing, throat pain, and difficulty speaking or swallowing. Acute laryngitis lasts less than 3 weeks and is often caused by viruses. Chronic laryngitis produces lingering hoarseness from long term irritation or misuse. Treatment focuses on voice rest, inhaling steam, cough suppressants, and sometimes short term steroids or antibiotics. Voice therapy can help restore normal voice quality and prevent future issues.

Are you having the perception of auditory sensation in the absence of any external stimulation or other sounds, chances are you are more likely suffering from Tinnitus.
The document discusses laryngitis and vocal cord paralysis. Laryngitis is inflammation of the voice box that causes hoarseness and can be acute or chronic. It is usually caused by viral infection but long-term issues like smoking or acid reflux can lead to chronic laryngitis. Vocal cord paralysis occurs when the nerves controlling the vocal cords are damaged, preventing normal movement and function. Both conditions impact voice and breathing and may require treatments like voice therapy, injections, or surgery to improve symptoms. Accurate diagnosis involves laryngoscopy and other exams to determine the cause and appropriate treatment plan.
This document discusses the symptoms and causes of voice problems. It outlines several common symptoms including throat discomfort, impaired voice quality like hoarseness, changes in pitch, and difficulty projecting the voice. These symptoms can occur due to structural changes in the vocal folds or other factors. The usual causes are a combination of issues related to voice use, the physical environment, and stress levels. Improper voice use, health problems, high stress, and poor acoustic environments can all contribute to voice problems. Teachers may be at higher risk if they lack knowledge of voice anatomy, misuse their voice through behaviors like yelling, have health issues or high stress, or work in rooms with unsuitable acoustics.
Tinnitus is a hearing of ringing, buzzing, hissing, or roaring sounds that originated in the ear.It is caused due to damage of inner cell and it is associated with damage to the auditory system and related with others factors such as the jaw, head, or neck injury, exposure to certain drugs, nerve damage or blood-flow problems.

Ear harm and exposure to loud noises are common causes of tinnitus. Lesser-known causes embody medications and thyroid disease. It’s not invariably doable for a doctor to spot the cause, however varied treatments are available. symptom is that the medical term for “ringing within the ears.”
Ringing in the ears is known as tinnitus. It can be experienced temporarily after loud noise exposure but requires treatment if persistent. There are two types of tinnitus: objective, which can be heard externally, and subjective, which is internal. Non-pulsatile tinnitus results from damage to hearing nerves while pulsatile tinnitus relates to blood flow issues. Noise-induced tinnitus from loud noises damages tiny hairs in the ear that detect sound. Hearing loss from aging also damages these hairs, resulting in tinnitus. Other causes include alcohol, high blood pressure, ear wax, ear infections, and head or neck injuries. Tinnitus can be debilitating and lead
Hoarseness is an abnormal change in the voice that can be caused by disorders of the vocal folds. Symptoms include a breathy, raspy, strained or abnormal pitch or volume. Common causes discussed include benign vocal fold lesions from overuse, vocal fold hemorrhage from yelling, gastroesophageal reflux, laryngopharyngeal reflux, smoking, and neurological disorders. Evaluation includes laryngoscopy and other imaging tests if needed. Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may include voice therapy, antireflux therapy, corticosteroids, antimicrobials, botulinum toxin injections, or surgery. Preventive measures like hydration and avoiding irritants can help lower risk of hoarseness.
Conductive vs sensorineural hearing loss AkashDeep259
Conductive hearing loss is for the most part treatable and therefore temporary. In many cases, something is plugging the ear canal, which prevents you from hearing well. As with sensorineural hearing loss there are many causes of conductive hearing loss like Ear wax and other fluid buildups.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Vocal cord nodules and its homeopathy treatment in Chembur, Mumbai, India.
1. Effevtive treatment & remedies for Vocal cord Nodules
Definition:
A polyp or benign growth protruding from a mucous membrane of vocal cords are called as vocal nodules.
Vocal cords are like two strings present in the voice box (larynx) and are absolutely
essential for phonation. Nodules on the vocal cords interfere with normal voice
functioning and produce a hoarse, breathy or weak voice.
Causes:
Vocal nodules develop from various reasons ranging from voice overuse (such as
prolonged singing, shouting or loud talking) or cigarette smoke, viral infection, or
chronic inflammation and sinusitis. Moreover, it is believed that polyps or nodules are an
allergic inflammatory reaction. Allergy is an altered state of normal immunity that
overreacts to otherwise harmless agents.
Symptoms:
The commonest symptom is hoarseness. The voice may also sound low-pitched or slightly breathy.Nodules
and polyps cause similar symptoms:
• hoarseness
• breathiness
• a "rough" voice
• a "scratchy" voice
• harshness
• shooting pain from ear to ear
• a "lump in the throat" sensation
• neck pain
• decreased pitch range
• voice and body fatigue
Treatment:
Homeopathic approach is more totalistic and holistic. Rather than considering nodules as a local problem.
They are considered to be an affection of the constitution. Most of the nodules need to be visualized under scope
and some of thm require biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. Some nodules further can transformed in to
carcinomatous if the genetic, habits, diets and other factors are considered. In these conditions Homeopathy works
preventively.
