Polyp on my right vocal cord
The laryngoscopy result last Oct 2 showed a polyp on my right vocal cord. Is surgery my only option? If so, what is the best one? laser or conventional?

Hello! Vocal cord polyps are treated definitively only woth surgery. If it is just a polyp, conventional cold instruments should be sufficient, though Laser can be used if available.
