Right Voice Cord Injured During Surgery For Fusion Of Vocal Cord. Will I Ever Get Back My Voice Back?
Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion with vocal cord issues, had this surgery 6 years ago and I now never know when my voice is going to work properly. Some days it is fine and others it sounds garbled.. I knew there was a risk with the surgery, but I thought it would have healed by now. My Doctor tells me that my right voice cord was injured during the surgery.. Will I ever get my voice back all the way?
