Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Head & Neck Cancer Support Group.

Hi @kaytie Welcome to the head and neck cancer group. We can see if someone here is familiar with the treatment of polypoids as likely they have cropped up as a result of radiation treatment or similar. As far as I understand, polypoids are not cancerous but may be pre-cancer markers similar to polyps found elsewhere. I imagine you are experiencing some vocal issues or perhaps pain, which is why you looked for help.
Let’s see what responses arise. In the meantime welcome and good healing.

On two occasions I developed nodules on my vocal cords since my treatment for throat cancer, both benign. My voice was affected, and it did nothing to enhance my karaoke singing, but otherwise, I noticed no other complications. Good luck!
