About Our Voice & Airway Clinic

Our Voice & Airway Clinic at THANC Hospital in Kilpauk, Chennai specializes in the evaluation and management of disorders affecting the voice box, vocal cords, trachea, and upper airway. Supported by advanced stroboscopy, laryngoscopy, and endoscopic imaging, we treat both common and complex voice and airway conditions. From hoarseness and vocal cord nodules to tracheal stenosis and post-intubation airway narrowing, our clinic follows evidence-based protocols led by experienced laryngologists and speech language pathologists to ensure accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and long-term vocal and respiratory recovery.

When to Consult Our Voice & Airway Clinic Team

Early evaluation leads to better outcomes. Speak to our team if you notice any of these:

Persistent hoarseness or voice fatigue

Any voice change lasting more than 3 weeks — especially in voice professionals — deserves scope examination.

Loss of voice volume or pitch control

Reduced voice projection affects teaching, singing, and speaking careers and often has a treatable cause.

Noisy breathing or stridor

Noisy breathing in adults or children can signal airway narrowing and needs prompt endoscopic evaluation.

Chronic cough without a clear cause

Unexplained cough can have laryngeal, reflux, or airway triggers — structured evaluation finds the cause.

Difficulty breathing after intubation or tracheostomy

Post-intubation airway narrowing needs specialist assessment and structured airway restoration.

Vocal cord paralysis after neck or chest surgery

Vocal cord paralysis can be improved with voice restoration procedures and therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long should I rest my voice after surgery?
Voice rest is typically recommended for 3–7 days after vocal cord surgery, followed by structured voice therapy. Your surgeon and speech therapist guide the exact schedule based on the procedure and your healing.
Can voice therapy alone fix my hoarseness?
Yes — for many voice problems, structured voice therapy is the first and often definitive treatment. Surgery is reserved for structural lesions or cases that do not respond to therapy.
Is laryngoplasty right for vocal cord paralysis?
Laryngoplasty can significantly improve voice and swallowing for many patients with vocal cord paralysis. The best approach depends on the cause, side, and time since onset — assessed during your consultation.
Is tracheostomy always permanent?
No. Many tracheostomies are temporary — removed once the underlying airway problem improves. Others are long-term when there is chronic airway narrowing or the need for ongoing ventilation.
Will THANC give me a written estimate for voice surgery?
Yes. After scope assessment and planning, our team shares a written, itemised estimate. THANC's rates are consistently below prevailing Chennai market rates.
