Voice
The following are just a small sample of conditions that the doctors at Ear, Nose and Throat, Ltd. treat.

Hoarseness
Hoarseness is a general term that describes abnormal voice changes. The changes in sound are usually due to disorders related to the vocal cords that are the sound producing parts of the voice box (larynx).

Laryngitis
Laryngitis is a swelling of the vocal cords usually due to an infection.

Vocal Chord Paralysis
Vocal fold (or cord) paresis and paralysis result from abnormal nerve input to the voice box muscles (laryngeal muscles). Paralysis is the total interruption of nerve impulse resulting in no movement of the muscle; Paresis is the partial interruption of nerve impulse resulting in weak or abnormal motion of laryngeal muscle(s).
