Vocal Cord Dysfunction

​

ProActive Physical Therapy offers services for people who are having trouble with vocal cord dysfunction (VCD) and Excessive Dynamic Airway Collapse (EDAC). If you have vocal cord dysfunction, your vocal cords don’t open all the way with inhalation. This blocks your airways, and you may struggle with breathing. VCD is often misdiagnosed as asthma, which has similar symptoms.  EDAC can cause chronic airway inflammation, GERD, trauma to airways, etc.

If you have been diagnosed with these conditions and you need help, call us at ProActive PT. We often will work with pulmonologists and speech therapists to help with these complex conditions.
