　　Relatives and friends gather together to drink, sing, and often have a great time. Eating and drinking are indispensable during festivals. It is also common to go to a karaoke bar to "karaoke" after a few drinks. He even stayed up all night singing and drinking. However, some people often feel that their throats are tight and uncomfortable after singing karaoke, and their voices are hoarse, especially after drinking. This situation often happens. This is mostly caused by acute vocal cord inflammation, which is caused by damage to the vocal cords caused by drinking and singing, resulting in a hoarse voice.

　　Singing is mainly a vocal cord movement. When speaking normally, the vocal cords vibrate hundreds of times per second, and when singing some high-pitched songs, the frequency is as high as 1,200 times. After drinking, the vocal cords are tense and numb, and singing loudly can easily damage the vocal cords and the motor muscles that control the vocal cords, causing redness, swelling, and laceration of the vocal cords.
