My wife's face and neck muscles tense when trying to speak?
Hi, I'm sorry to hear about your wife. I recommend seeing a speech pathology specialist in voice and voice disorders. Maybe get a follow up by the ENT since it's been awhile and then a speech pathologist working on voice to help reduce the tension. Make sure the ENT and speech pathologist specialize in voice and spasmodic dysphagia. I specialize in dysphagia management. READ MORE
