Question

My mom has two vocal cord nodules and her voice isn't clear. An ENT specialist in Moradabad is recommending surgery, but I'm wondering if there's any way to treat this without going for an operation. Are there other options we can try first?

Yes, there are definitely non-surgical options to try before considering surgery for vocal cord nodules. Voice therapy, vocal rest, and sometimes medications can be effective in managing these nodules and improving voice quality.
