Vocal cord polyps are a relatively common otolaryngological condition. It is advised to avoid spicy foods in the diet. This type of food tends to irritate the vocal cords significantly, potentially causing congestion and edema in the vocal cords, and aggravating the condition of the vocal cord polyps. Moreover, it may also lead to further worsening of hoarseness. Some patients may even develop acute pharyngitis, which can cause throat pain, breathing difficulties, and possibly even fever. After the onset of vocal cord polyps, it is necessary for patients to visit an otolaryngology department, undergo a laryngoscopy to assess the condition, and consider medical conservative treatment or surgical removal depending on the case.
