About Vocal Cord Nodules in Bengaluru

Vocal cord nodules are small, callus-like growths that develop on both vocal cords, typically at the point of maximum vibration contact, as a result of repeated vocal strain or misuse. Unlike a single growth, nodules usually form as mirror-image pairs due to the friction between the two vocal cords during forceful or prolonged voice use. They are common among individuals who use their voice heavily and improperly, such as singers, teachers, and call center workers, earning the informal name singer's nodules or teacher's nodules. With appropriate voice rest and therapy, nodules often resolve without the need for surgery.
