Vocal health is not something pharmacists usually talk about.  I am a pharmacist who suffers from a common voice disorder called muscle tension dysphonia.  Today, I’m sharing my experience with it to raise awareness about it. 

Disclaimer:  The information shared in this episode is not intended to diagnose, treat, prevent, or cure any voice disorders.  I am not a speech language pathologist (aka speech therapist), voice therapist, or Ear, Nose, Throat (ENT) doctor.  If you think you may have muscle tension dysphonia, get help.  Start with your primary care provider.
