The Sensitive Larynx: Persistent Throat Symptoms with Dr. Daniel Novakovic

In this UEP Voicebox episode, Professor Daniel Novakovic joins us from Sydney to explain the concept of laryngeal sensory dysfunction.

The symptoms present may be chronic cough, throat irritation, and inducible laryngeal obstruction — but his latest research is opening new treatment options.

He discusses diagnostic tools (history, cough threshold testing, superior laryngeal nerve blocks), therapeutic options including neural modulators, speech therapy, and the emerging use of supraglottic botulinum toxin.

We are also joined by his patient, Katie Gladstone, as she shares her recovery story.
