Sarah Gee OB ch 20

Some of the voice problems discussed in this chapter are hyper and hypofunctioning voices, laryngitis, edema, polyps, and nodules, dysphonia plicae ventricularis, contact ulcers (I'd never heard this one before), Myasthenia larynis. these are all conditions that effect the singer. the hyperfunctioning voice over uses the voice and is more prone to nodules and the other conditions. Some ways to treat most of these problems is through short periods of light vocalization and less over all use of vocal muscles.
Concepts:
use your voice wisely.
Words:
hyperfunction
hypofunction
edema
polyps
nodules
dysphonia plicae ventricularis
contact ulcers
myasthenia larynis
Connections: don't over use your voice, use your voice kindly. Take care and be mindful of your vocal health.
