Miley Cyrus Explains the Medical Condition Behind Her Raspy Voice
- On May 21, Miley Cyrus discussed her diagnosis of Reinke's edema—a benign vocal cord condition that results in a raspy, deeper voice—during a conversation hosted by Apple Music's Zane Lowe.
- She attributed the condition partly to her early-career lifestyle at age 21, involving late nights, drinking, smoking, and partying after shows, which she described as vocal cord abuse.
- Cyrus has a sizable polyp on her vocal cords but chooses not to undergo surgery, fearing it could permanently alter her unique voice; she likens performing with the polyp to the added challenge of running a marathon while carrying extra weight on her ankles.
- She expressed reluctance to undergo surgery because there is a real risk that the procedure could alter her voice, making it sound different from how she normally sounds, which adds to the challenges of performing with her condition.
- Despite the difficulties she faces, Cyrus intends to tour frequently, explaining that her ability to perform live depends on her physical condition and various other considerations, and she aims to use her music as a means of healing.
