Voice Disorders in Athletes, Coaches and other Sports Professionals

Abstract

Numerous medical conditions may affect voice. Such medical conditions create voice and whole-body performance difficulties. Common medical conditions include infection and inflammation, sinusitis, allergy, respiratory tract infection, autoimmune disease, obesity, aging, hearing loss, respiratory dysfunction, endocrine and neurologic disorders, psychologic impairment, and structural lesions of the larynx. Practitioners and performers, including athletes and coaches, should be familiar with these conditions and their implications when evaluating, treating, and training performers such as athletes.
