Singer's Nodules

What you need to know:

This condition affects organs properly called vocal folds and can occur in anyone from football supporters to barristers and garrulous taxi drivers - in fact, anyone who earns their living or enjoys their hobby by using their voice.

The first sensible step is - to put it bluntly - shut up and give your voice a rest. Drinks lots of fluids, particularly hot water with honey and lemon and use 2 ancient remedies favoured by the Romans.

Nero used to eat leeks and drink their juice - this vegetable is renowned for protecting and improving the voice

Garlic honey was also a household remedy for voice problems in ancient Rome and no home today should be without a jar. Peel and slice 4 cloves of Garlic and stir into a 500g jar of honey. It will be ready to use in a week and will get better as time goes on. It’s not only good for throat problems, but for chest infections too
