It's possible you have a simple thing called 'globes hysterics' or 'hysterical lump.' It happens a lot in anxious people. There are man articles that will tell you how to 'behave your way out of it." You need to find a therapist who treat it with 'CBT' or cognitive behavioral therapy." It's just anxiety; and when you truly believe this and relax, it will go away .
hi mam im an xdp patient or they called it an X linked dystonia parkinsonism its a rare genetic disorder that can be found only in the philippines ,but i was undergo a deep brain stimulation or DBS were in they put a tiny wire in my head and there is a battery device inside my chest after the operation i feel better now no more parkinson symptoms like involuntary movement special on my head,but i had one problem after the operation it started my tongue to twist more on the left side thats why its affect my speech i can talk properly sometimes my tongue pops out alone please i wanna ask if there still a way to fix it my nuero doctor says the operation is not 100 % still there is symptoms from dystonia or parkinson please give me any advice or the best exercise for me to atleast to make my spèech improve, i hope you can help me🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing your story and I’m glad to hear the operation is helping! I can’t comment specially on your condition or what the best treatment would be for you, unfortunately. The tongue exercises on my channel are geared towards individuals with weakness secondary to neurologic injury.
Very occasionally if I accidentally inhale a droplet of water (shower or swimming), or it hits the back of my throat wrong or a potato chip particles hit the back of my throat if I partially inhale it my epiglottis seizes up and I can't breathe for a long period, like a pinhole of air getting through. Then if I cough during this time it stays closed even longer. It's a very panicked situation and then eventually it relaxes but it feels an eternity. Any exercises for epiglottis or something that might prevent it from seizing up? My ENT said a long time ago there was nothing I can do.
That sounds like a really distressing experience, and I’m sorry to hear you’ve been dealing with that. I'm curious how you/the ENT concluded it was the epiglottis seizing and not laryngospasm. While I cannot offer any person specific advice, controlled breathing is a technique for individuals with laryngospasm. Here's a diaphragmatic breathing video you might appreciate: ruclips.net/video/7ylDS-ACABY/видео.html
Hi Melissa! I'm so sorry to hear about the struggles with eating. Eating food is such a big factor for quality of life. I would highly recommend that you see a speech therapist who can make specific recommendations for your case and anatomical differences. Many swallow exercises aim to help out the epiglottic movement. Without this structure in place, airway protection is significantly compromised.
Do you have a video for help with epiglottis? My sons closes when it should stay open while he’s running and they said it was caused by covid which made it “malfunction”
I have never heard of that. But I have heard of VCD with young athletes which might be worth asking your doctor about: uknow.uky.edu/uk-healthcare/athletes-who-experience-trouble-breathing-may-have-vocal-cord-dysfunction www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC164364/
I had a brain injury ƴears ago, after menopause , now my speech is worse again but, , i also, snore any thought of helping that with the tongue or .....?

Hello It’s been 2 months ever since I’ve been having trouble swallowing! There times where I eat I’ll have to drink something so i can swallow it because then i think im about to choke and sometimes i do choke and its scary! Even when i drive i have to focus on swallowing or I’ll choke! Im stressed out i tried everything and nothing is working! Im fed up!
So sorry to hear this! How frustrating and scary. Have you gotten checked out by your physician? You may want to ask for a modified barium swallow test.
It is true that swallow exercises take a lot of cognitive capacity to be able to follow. Folks who have difficulty following directions or decreased cognitive skills may not be great candidates for a swallow exercise program. In my experience, the chin tuck against resistance or jaw open against resistance exercise require less cognitive-linguistic skills to be able to complete. Swallow exercises should not be prescribed in isolation and it is important to think of the client's entire profile when recommending a dysphagia treatment program.

@@SpeechSecrets no I haven’t gotten checked! I recently go into an issue with my insurance so I have to wait and reply which is also stressful!
That’s the worst. I hate when insurance causes stress to an already stressful situation.
When patient is not able to follow the command then what will we do?
