I'm a 26-year-old guy dealing with a high pitch voice that lacks resonance. People often mistake me for a woman over the phone, and it's frustrating. I haven't seen a doctor about this yet, and I'm also dealing with essential tremor. Are there any exercises or treatments that could help with these issues?

It sounds like you may be experiencing voice modulation issues. You can try using voice therapy techniques to improve your voice quality. Additionally, you can use medications like Botox injections to help with essential tremors. For voice modulation, you can try speech therapy exercises and vocal warm-ups. For essential tremors, you can consider taking Propranolol. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.

I'm wondering if it's okay to rinse my mouth with fresh water after using Betadine for gargling. Also, if I can't rinse, is it safe to swallow the saliva that comes after gargling, because I read somewhere it might cause thyroid issues? And how long should I wait before eating or drinking anything post-gargling?

There is no such specific indication do it in your comfortable way.
