With the winter sports season set to kick off, physiotherapy clinics in the region gear up for the ordinary influx of ankle, knee and hamstring injuries. Once injuries occur, prompt assessment and treatment of injuries hopefully assist players back onto the field as soon as possible. The vocal tract consists of the easy tissues structures that aid in the production of voice. Air moves from the lungs through the trachea into the larynx where the vocal cords unfold and close allowing the production of sound. The larynx is a intricate structure of protective cartilages, muscles and supportive bony structures. Although it is relatively protected by the powerful shelf of the jaw overhead and the collar bones and sternum below, a lofty tackle around the neck or a direct blow can cause important injury. Injuries to this region can be solemn with fractures to the cartilage structures, hemorrhage in the larynx and in some cases can be life menacing with airway blockage occurring. Immediate difficulty in breathing, swallowing and speaking requires important medical assessment to rule out grave injury. However these issues can linger and become chronic and impact on communication. If a player continues to experience ongoing issues a thorough assessment of the laryngeal structures is needed. Often, however, direct injury to the musculoskeletal structures that support the larynx can result in spasm of some muscles and weakness of others resulting in irregular vocal quality.
