Disease
-- A definite pathologic process with a characteristic set of signs and symptoms. It may affect the whole body or any of its parts, and its etiology, pathology, and prognosis may be known or unknown.
Voice Disorders
-- Pathological processes that affect voice production, usually involving VOCAL CORDS and the LARYNGEAL MUCOSA. Voice disorders can be caused by organic (anatomical), or functional (emotional or psychological) factors leading to DYSPHONIA; APHONIA; and defects in VOICE QUALITY, loudness, and pitch.
Laryngitis
-- Inflammation of the LARYNGEAL MUCOSA, including the VOCAL CORDS. Laryngitis is characterized by irritation, edema, and reduced pliability of the mucosa leading to VOICE DISORDERS such as APHONIA and HOARSENESS.
Complete Hearing Loss
-- A general term for the complete loss of the ability to hear from both ears.
Deafness
-- lack or significant deficiency of the sense of hearing.
Hoarseness
-- An unnaturally deep or rough quality of voice.
Nodule
-- (NOD-yool) A growth or lump that may be cancerous or noncancerous.
polyps
-- Discrete abnormal tissue masses that protrude into the lumen of the DIGESTIVE TRACT or the RESPIRATORY TRACT. Polyps can be spheroidal, hemispheroidal, or irregular mound-shaped structures attached to the MUCOUS MEMBRANE of the lumen wall either by a stalk, pedunculus, or by a broad base.

Infection
-- Invasion of the host organism by microorganisms that can cause pathological conditions or diseases.
Virus
-- Minute infectious agents whose genomes are composed of DNA or RNA, but not both. They are characterized by a lack of independent metabolism and the inability to replicate outside living host cells.
Virus Diseases
-- A general term for diseases produced by viruses.
Malignant Neoplasms
-- A term for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without control. Cancer cells can invade nearby tissues and can spread through the bloodstream and lymphatic system to other parts of the body.
Primary malignant neoplasm

LARYNGISMUS
-- A disorder in which the adductor muscles of the VOCAL CORDS exhibit increased activity leading to laryngeal spasm. Laryngismus causes closure of the VOCAL FOLDS and airflow obstruction during inspiration.
Sore Throat
-- Any kind of inflammatory process of the tonsils, pharynx, or/and larynx characterized by pain in swallowing.
METASTATIC CALCIFICATION
--
Dysphonia
-- Difficulty and/or pain in PHONATION or speaking.
Deglutition Disorders
-- Difficulty in SWALLOWING which may result from neuromuscular disorder or mechanical obstruction. Dysphagia is classified into two distinct types: oropharyngeal dysphagia due to malfunction of the PHARYNX and UPPER ESOPHAGEAL SPHINCTER; and esophageal dysphagia due to malfunction of the ESOPHAGUS.
