KimberTimbers Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I've had a blood blister in my voal chords before and I can honestly say that they are freaking PAINFUL I was completely miserable with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XParamoreFanX Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I think it's pretty common with singers - I think it's a combination of strain/using your voice a lot (and the vocal chords rubbing together in a way that creates a blister - at least that's how I understand it) and if you have acid reflux or something like that, that can aggravate it as well. Does Hayley have acid reflux? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimberTimbers Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I dunno. She might. with a lot of singers that I know, they have acid reflux for some reason. It does aggrivate the vocal chords Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is similar to what Hayley has... contact ulcers on the vocal cords Contact ulcers on the vocal cords can occur when too much force is used in speech. When the vocal cords are excessively forced together, ulcerated sores may occur. Tissue may also wear away on or near the larynx cartilages. Ulcers sometimes are also caused by gastroesophageal reflux. Contact ulcers may cause the voice to tire easily and may cause a sore throat. http://www.methodisthealth.com/cgi-bin/hmdim/home/basic.do?channelId=-1073831307&contentId=1073790635&contentType=HEALTHTOPIC_CONTENT_TYPE Haven't heard much from them lately...I hope she's feeling a lot better before they head back out on the road... Wow Brent you've done your research. Spreading ur Jediness. But yeah im glad to hear shes doin better for sure. Must suck not being able to do what she does best. But yeah i get sore throats all the time since im a heavy smoker. But yeah after years of singing it can get to you. Look at Stephen Tyler for instance lol. And i heard that the fear factory vocalist just started spitting out blood in the middle of the concert one time and they had to stop it. Its tough to be a singer. Thats why i play guitar. lol. Again im glad to hear that shes getting better. I hope the next show they play she feels better doin what she loves. Ren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerrie Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 my parents know of this and its a really serious issue. Surgery is an option in some cases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrowncoat Posted August 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 my parents know of this and its a really serious issue. Surgery is an option in some cases That is true of vocal cord disorders in general...I know, for example, that the lead singer of Piebald had to have surgery for problems with his vocal cords. However, in talking to Josh and Hayley, I don't think her problem is that severe (I certainly hope it's not)..the dr's diagnosis for her was rest (not talking, etc.) and then the week off they've just had has hopefully made a big difference (*fingers crossed*). Hayley also mentioned that getting home and working with her vocal coach again would make a big difference and really help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerrie Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 well I hope cause some areosmith lead singer got the same thing, had to cancel all the tour, and have surgery.
