Hi,

Thank you for your query.

This happens sometime to some individuals.

Our voice is produced when air is forcibly moved through our throat and vocal cords. Mouth and tongue play a part in forming words, but it is our pair of vocal cords in the throat that influences how XXXXXXX or how high the tone of our voice is.

Men have longer vocal cords at puberty. A longer vocal fold means a deeper voice, which is why males tend to have a deeper voice than girls.

If your voice is not as XXXXXXX as it needs to be, kindly consult an ENT specialist. Speech therapy can be tried. If that is not effective then a voice change surgery can be done at this age.

Hope this answers your query. If you have any further queries you are free to consult me.

Wishing your child a speedy recovery...
