Voice

Explore how the voice works and what can contribute to hoarseness, vocal fatigue, vocal fry, or other changes in voice quality. These articles cover healthy voice habits, common childhood and adult voice concerns, at-home exercises, and the role of voice therapy. Readers can also learn when a persistent change should be evaluated by a medical professional. Voice loss, breathing difficulty, swallowing difficulty, pain, or hoarseness lasting several weeks should not be managed through exercises alone.
