What is the "white coating and black spot" on my vocal cord?

Hi Cathee,
My husband has lung cancer and has hoarseness caused by several of his inhalers and his nebulizer medication. They were able to stop some of the medications but obviously couldn't stop them all. Through trial and error, we have discovered that drinking a lot of water helps my husband's hoarseness especially in the morning. Also taking a spoonful of both honey and molasses at the same time daily helps a lot. It helps to stay away from caffeine or limit coffee intake somewhat. Mucinex helps but you are only supposed to take it for 7 days at a time.
Prayer helps also. We pray a lot and my husband's hoarseness has improved quite a bit! I will say a prayer for you.
Merry Christmas!

My ENT sent me out for 2 different CT scans and 80 minutes of MRI’s, and chest XRays. and he still seems to not know what’s wrong with me. I endured an 80 minute MRI AND 2 scopes down my nose and now in 5 days I have to go to the hospital to deep scope me.
I’m afraid to find out what he’s looking at and now this longer scope seems like it will be uncomfortable.
My right vocal fold (or paralyzed right vocal is a major issue probably having to do with cancer or benign growth behind my cord. It’s completely not opening . It’s paralyzed the doctor said.
I looked into an online symptoms app and it seems like symptoms of cancer in my esophagus . Scary. Stuff as it’s probably going to
Involve surgery it trache.
