During adolescence, many teenage friends will have such "encounters". In childhood, the voices of boys and girls are not much different. However, as they grow older, girls' voices become sharper and thinner, while boys' voices appear broader and deeper. Moreover, both of them originally sang very well, but after a while, one person's voice was still very sweet and loud, while the other person's voice became hoarse and unpleasant.

Why does this change happen? This is because people rely on two vocal cords in the throat to pronounce words. During childhood, the vocal cords of boys and girls are similar in length, so the sounds they produce are not very different. The sounds at this time can be collectively referred to as child sounds or child voices. When the voice changes, the vocal cords will change. Boys' vocal cords gradually become thicker, while girls' vocal cords become relatively thin. When the vocal cords change, the voice will naturally change. Moreover, along with these changes, there are other physiological changes. At this time, the throat is prone to congestion or a certain degree of edema.

Things to note when protecting your voice during the voice-changing period:

First of all, you must pay attention to using your voice reasonably. During the voice-changing period, the throat is often in a congested state. If you talk too much or sing for too long or use too much force, it will cause fatigue in the throat. Therefore, whether you are singing or speaking, do not use too much force, let alone shouting. If you practice singing, it should not exceed one hour a day, and you should not use your voice continuously. After singing for more than ten minutes, you should pause for a while and take a rest.

Secondly, do not eat irritating foods, such as peppers, garlic, onions, vinegar, etc. They will irritate your throat and make your vocal cords more congested, red and swollen. In addition, alcohol and cigarettes also have a great irritating effect on the throat. In pursuit of style and fashion, some middle school students also imitate adults by smoking and drinking. The voice-changing period of adults has passed, the vocal cords tend to be mature and stable, and tobacco and alcohol are less irritating to adults. It's different for young people. The vocal cords are already changing, and smoking and drinking can only aggravate the edema and congestion of the vocal cords. Furthermore, food that is too cold or too hot can also cause trauma to the vocal cords. Therefore, if you like to eat cold drinks or drink hot soup, you should pay more attention during the period of voice change.

Third, we must prevent respiratory diseases. During the voice-changing period, you need to take more precautions against colds. After a cold, your voice will be directly affected. Especially severe coughing will increase the burden on the vocal cords, making them more edematous and congested.

The fourth one is to keep your throat warm and moist. In winter, families in the north have heaters for heating. If the windows are not opened for a long time and the heater is relatively hot, it will easily dry out the air in the room. When people live in a dry and hot environment, their throats and noses will become unbearably dry. thereby increasing the likelihood of disease.

Therefore, if you want to have a good voice, you must always pay attention to protecting it from harm. If you feel uncomfortable in your throat, see a doctor as soon as possible, or take some throat lozenges.

Self-care is multifaceted. Just like you need self-care when playing video games, your throat also needs careful care. As you are entering adolescence, if you want to have a beautiful singing voice, you might as well start protecting yourself from now on.

Protect your throat and don’t let diseases enter through your mouth.
