He is very good at keeping in his vocal and motor tics when in public and with his friends but now he cannot do that. His motor and vocal tics are worse than ever. He has lost his voice completely because of the loud vocal tics day and night and his whole body lifts off the ground/bed from his motor tics which occur every 4 or 5 seconds. He is exhusted and so am i as i have to hold him at night and reassure him that he will get better.

On the matter of the vocal tick, I would start by looking for other opinions on the nature of this problem. It is possible that this behavior is not a tick as much as it is a vocal form of stereotypy. On the other hand, there may be post-nasal drip that your son is responding to and the throat-clearing/scratching might be an appropriate response.
I believe it is called stimming..we have an autism forum on Med Help other parents with similar may have input for you on there ..
I would suggest an ENT evaluation. Singers are prone to vocal fold pathologies. She would want to rule out vocal fold nodules or other problems. She would need a doctor referral to a speech pathologist who provides voice therapy, which offers treatment. There are some articles on good vocal hygiene to try in the meantime.
my surgeon stated there was no complication with the surgery that would affect the vocal cords??confused and need to go back to work ?
This can lead to disorders like laryngitis, vocal nodules, vocal polyp and sometimes contact ulcers on the vocal cords. But these changes are reversible if the causative factors are dealt with. And sometimes voice therapy is helpful. You will need to consult your primary care physician for further evaluation, who may then refer you to an ENT specialist.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
I was told by my surgeon that my vocal cord was bruised from pulling during surgery and that the nerve was not cut and when the swelling gones down my cord should start back working it have been 11 months and i still have problems eating and drinking. My voice is weak, hoarse. My ENT doctor performed 2 injections so far this help with choking on food but not my voice. What else can be done?
In April 2011, I had a total thyroidectomy because of papillary thyroid present on my thyroid and in a few lymph nodes. As of today, the cancer hasn't tried to come back so I should count my blessings for that, but during the surgery, my vocal nerve was severed. The doctor realized his error and attempted to fix the nerve before sewing me back up, but unfortunately the nerve never healed.
So I believe it is my left vocal cord that is near 100% paralyzed while my other one works perfectly.
My allergist is suggesting I have a rhinoscopy for Vocal Cord dysfunction. If I have the surgery, will the vocal cord dysfunction go away or do I still need to get checked and treated for Vocal Cord dysfunction? Not sure if I should consult an ENT and pursue Vocal Cord issues before seeking surgery options.
Mine is from acid reflux and starts on the rear left vocal cord and extends to between the vocal cords remaining on the left vocal cord.
In your practice have many of these turned up cancerous? I am a nonsmoker.
I am scheduled for a bispsy and endoscopy on July 21 if it doesnt improve. I am very upset about this ulcer.
I have paralysis in my vocal folds and the ENT is going to do lipoinjection and I wondered if anyone else has had this done and if so how did you feel after it was done. What kind of recovery can I expect. I know I can't talk for a few days but I didn't think to ask about eating or anything else.
I also lost my voice for 6 weeks after TT because my vocal cord was paralyzed. It came back without any intervention. Your doctor (ENT) can do an examination to see if the vocal cord is moving. My ENT took a wait and see approach, and it worked itself out.
Can this also be a symptom of Vocal Cord Dysfunction? My throat usually gets tight just before, and suddenly my throat (vocal cords) close up for a short moment. I can there after breath normally. It isn't something that scares me, but it's very irritating and frustrating not knowing what it is and what causes it. Thank you! God bless!
I have not seen much of a difference with his tics. His were vocal and facial. His vocal has decreased some, but I think that is more so with the other methods we are working on with him. However, his tics got considerably worse if he was tired. He was having a very difficult time sleeping and clonidine relaxes him enough so that he can sleep for about 4 hours at one time, before we were lucky if he slept for 2 hours at once during the night.
These symptoms are often associated with hoarseness and that is often associated with thickening of the vocal cords. This can happen due to inflammation caused by various things. Chemical irritants is common (smoking) even if you smoke infrequently. Other things can cause it too such as gastrointestinal reflux (gerd). Gerd can be such that you also don't know it is going on (silent). So, this is something to talk to a doctor about in general. I think I'd go ahead and get evaluated.
I'd love to hear from others regarding their experience with gel foam injections to bring paralyzed vocal cord midline. I had a thyroidectomy about a month ago and can't speak above a whisper. Do the risks outweigh the temporary restoration of voice? Is it harmful to whisper? Has anyone tried vocal therapy? What did you do? So many questions, I know, but I'm desperately looking for answers and hope.
I have now severe problems with breathing and my vocal chords are so inflammed I have difficulty even walking upstairs.
Two specialists have suggested that due to the surgery ( 6 hours) my vocal chords may be paralised but it is too early to tell at the moment.
If I stop breathing due to the closing of the chords I can be in serious trouble..
Has anybody been there and come through this???
Very worried, and scared at times.
