Dr. Xu Gang
Patients with vocal cord polyps are hospitalized in the otorhinolaryngology department. However, during treatment, patients may experience symptoms such as difficulty breathing. Typically, doctors perform surgical removal under fiberoptic laryngoscopy. Once diagnosed with polyps, patients should also focus on a light diet, avoiding spicy or greasy irritating foods, and consume fresh fruits and vegetables instead.
