What to do if the voice is missing

Vocal cords are a very valuable device in the human body. How can they preserve their unique ability to reproduce sounds for a long time? What kind of dangers can our voice not stand and can it be avoided? What if the voice was gone and it is necessary to speak to the audience soon? This and many other things will be discussed in our article.

The problem of loss of voice often occurs during the hot season, when a person quenches his thirst with cold drinks. The vocal cords are "shocked" when a sharp temperature drop occurs in the heat, and they respond to this stress with hoarseness, or even loss of voice.

During colds and flu, the voice can also disappear or sit down, as they cause swelling and inflammation of the larynx. Because of this, the vocal cords do not contract in their own mode.

The voice can be lost and because of the overstrain of the vocal cords. If a person speaks for a long time (reads a report, conducts a lesson or lecture, etc.), the ligaments experience an increased load. There is a perspiration in the throat, dryness and pain. This means that your bundles urgently need rest, otherwise there will be a loss of voice. What can I do to prevent this from happening?

During the speech in front of the audience do not overexert your ligaments, do not speak too loudly. The usual rhythm, frequent timeouts in the performance to take a breath and drink water - these are the methods of literate performance, when it is easier for people to perceive information, and do not hurt your health. After a prolonged overstrain of the vocal cords, doctors recommend immediately drinking hot tea and eating a spoonful of honey.

What should I do if I got a voice? First of all, you need to contact a specialist, since loss of voice is dangerous even for a short time and self-medication is unacceptable. Only a doctor can correctly diagnose the disease and prescribe effective treatment and necessary procedures in the physiotherapy department.

In addition to the medicines prescribed by the doctor, and physiotherapy in a healthcare institution, one can also be treated with folk remedies that are used when there is no voice. What should be done according to popular advice? It is recommended to drink only warm (not hot) drink: Borjomi, milk (you can mix them), drink with ginger, honey and lemon, berry juice. Among folk remedies for treating throat and a mixture of liquid honey, butter and banana puree, which have a wonderful enveloping property. Helps with loss of voice and gargling with broths and infusions of sage, chamomile, lemon balm. It would be nice to make a series of steam inhalations with infusions of medicinal herbs (oregano, nettle, sage).

What else to do if the voice is gone? In this period it is better to give up smoking, spicy dishes, drinking alcohol. But you can eat chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa butter (from 75% and above), because this oil has a softening effect.

You can not both raise your voice and talk in a whisper. And it is better to limit speech communication in general - to be silent for two days. During this time, your ligaments will rest as it should, and become more sensitive to the treatment.

Reduce the impact on the vocal cords of external stimuli: radio, TV, music, because when these devices work, the ligaments begin to instinctively strain. Opera singers know what to do if the voice is gone. They silently and silently restore their unique voices! Therefore, the more time you spend in silence, follow all the doctor's recommendations, use folk remedies, the sooner your voice will return to you.

In order not to remain voiceless at the right time and not to think about what to do, if the voice is gone, one should observe the simplest rules: in the cold season wear waterproof and warm shoes, a hat and a scarf. It is these things that will save your body from hypothermia, and your voice connections - from hoarseness and hoarseness.

It would be nice to learn the so-called breathing of the yogis, a very simple, but well ventilating lungs and a superbly clearing larynx.
