Neurolaryngeal Disorders

Neurolaryngeal disorders involve problems with the nerves that control the muscles of the larynx (voice box), affecting voice, speech, and breathing. These conditions can result from nerve damage due to stroke, neurological diseases like Parkinson’s, or injuries, leading to issues such as hoarseness, weakness, or loss of voice. They may also cause difficulty breathing or swallowing. Treatment often includes speech therapy, medications, or surgery, depending on the cause and severity. Proper diagnosis and management are essential to improve function and quality of life for affected individuals.
