Hello, vocal cord polyps make the two vocal cords not closed when pronouncing, leading to hoarse voice, shortness of breath if the polyp is large. Vocal cord polyps can enlarge, so you need to limit your speech, and at the same time abstain from spicy foods and carbonated drinks. You should regularly check laryngoscopy periodically, polyps do not disappear on their own, so if you say tired, large polyps, you should go for surgery to remove polyps. Currently, surgery to treat laryngeal polyps is very safe, I do not have to worry
