Vocal cord polyps generally do not require surgery. If the polyps are relatively small or if the symptoms of hoarseness are not obvious, surgery is usually not necessary, and medication can be considered. The treatment is primarily through oral medications, combined with nebulization therapy. If possible, professional voice training can also be considered. Most patients can gradually recover through conservative treatment. However, if the polyps are large and cause noticeable hoarseness, surgery might be needed. Post-surgery, regular follow-ups are necessary, but such surgeries are usually minimally invasive, performed under a laryngoscope, and do not involve significant external injuries.
