I've got this hard lump just behind my uvula on the throat wall, and it feels like bone when I touch it. Is this normal, or should I be worried it's something serious like cancer? I'm really anxious about it. Could you please take a look at the attached picture and let me know what you think?

I've been diagnosed with vocal cord nodules through endoscopy, and my voice isn't sounding right. The doctor recommended surgery, but I'm really worried can this be treated without surgery? I work in sales, so my voice is important. If surgery is necessary, could you suggest a good ENT surgeon in Delhi? Also, will my voice recover fully after the surgery?

Many factors can influence recovery, including the severity of the nodules, individual healing rates, and adherence to post-operative care

I'm having this odd issue where my voice changes a little after I've been speaking for a while, and people often mention it sounds like I have two different voices. It's not causing any pain or problems with my neck, but it's just really bothering me. Do you have any idea why this might be happening and what I could do about it?
