Sunny Hostin's Speaking Voice Is Being Impacted By Vocal Cord Nodules
Sunny Hostin is sharing a medical update regarding her speaking voice.
The View co-host revealed she has been suffering from vocal cord nodules.

Sunny shared all this news on the “Behind the Table” podcast: “Let me address my voice first, because people are noticing. I have some vocal cord nodules, apparently…. This started in December when I went away and was in a very arid place, very dry. I didn’t drink enough water!”
She said of her speaking voice, “Apparently, this is something that happens to singers, people that talk for a living, which is what I do. I’ve always done it, actually, even as an attorney.”
So, how is she approaching this? Well, she’s “seen one doctor, who thought it was either surgery, a month or less of vocal rest, or maybe injections. I don’t like those answers.”
The Cleveland Clinic does say that treatment includes vocal therapy, improving overall voice health, and surgery.
Sunny had a bit of a tense moment on a recent episode of The View with a celebrity who voted for Trump.
