| throat health
actually, my D's voice teacher has forbid her to take any kind of medication for colds, cough, sore throat, allergy, etc. because the ingredients are very drying to the vocal cords (also, dont use anything with menthol in it). the very best thing your son can do for the health of his cords is sleep in a nice steamy room, (my D uses a vaporizor and lots of blankets), avoid airconditioning at all costs, (even in the summer), sit in the bathroom with the water running hot and what my daughter has invented: the hot car. She sits in front of the theatre in a nice sunny spot in her car with the windows rolled up (the car is off of course) and works up a real sweat while she warms up with her vocals for about 10 minutes. I have heard the results--astonishing! |
