Miley Cyrus has long captivated audiences with her distinctive, raspy voice. A hallmark that sets her apart in the music industry. Recently, the singer revealed the medical condition behind her unique sound, sharing insights into her struggles and why she considers her vocal challenges a hidden blessing.
The Condition: Reinke’s Edema and Polyps
Cyrus disclosed that she suffers from Reinke’s edema. A rare condition where fluid accumulates in the vocal cords, causing them to swell. This results in her deeper, huskier tone, making both singing and speaking more demanding. Adding to the complexity, she also has a large polyp on one of her vocal cords, further shaping the texture and tone of her voice.
