World Voice Day is an awareness campaign focused on maintaining the quality of your voice. The most common issue people encounter is Dysphonia or hoarseness. The American Academy of Otolaryngology notes the following methods that can be used to prevent or alleviate hoarseness:
DO: Adequately hydrate by drinking plenty of water daily.
DO: Use amplification (microphone or megaphone) in large, noisy spaces can help reduce shouting and voice strain.
DO: Rest your voice briefly to prevent fatigue, straining, and overuse.
DO: Provide indoor air humidification in dry, arid environments.
AVOID: Smoking and second-hand smoke from cigarettes, cigars, and pipes, which irritate your airway, throat, nose, and mouth.
AVOID: Overusing or straining your voice by yelling, shouting, speaking over loud noises, and whispering.
AVOID: Excessive throat clearing and coughing.
AVOID: Alcohol (beer, wine, liquor) and caffeine beverages (coffee, soft drinks) as they can dry the throat resulting in mucous thickening.
AVOID: Use of drying medications (some antihistamines, diuretics).
