False. Spasmodic dysphonia is not contagious at all, but it has led to a lot of unnecessary social isolation for patients. There is a possibility it could be inherited; otherwise, spasmodic dysphonia is not something that will pass from one person to another by the means of communication. - https://www.madisonrichardsonmd.com/services/ #FactVSFiction #SpasmodicDysphonia #HealthTips #TipoftheDay

This year’s World Mental Health Day, on October 10th, comes at a time when our daily lives have changed considerably as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The past months have brought many challenges: for health-care workers, providing care in difficult circumstances, going to work fearful of bringing COVID-19 home with them; for students, adapting to taking classes from home, with little contact with teachers and friends, and anxious about their futures; for workers whose li...velihoods are threatened; for the vast number of people caught in poverty or in fragile humanitarian settings with extremely limited protection from COVID-19; and for people with mental health conditions, many experiencing even greater social isolation than before. - On Mental Health Awareness Day and everyday, let's work together as one to spread the word of Kindness in times like this! #MentalHealth #WorldMentalHealthDay #Kindness

Cancers that are known collectively as head and neck cancers usually begin in the squamous cells that line the moist, mucosal surfaces inside the head and neck (for example, inside the mouth, the nose, and the throat). Head and neck cancers can also begin in the salivary glands, but salivary gland cancers are relatively uncommon. Salivary glands contain many different types of cells that can become cancerous, so there are many different types of salivary gland cancer. Cancer...s of the head and neck are further categorized by the area of the head or neck in which they begin. These areas are described below and labeled in the image of head and neck cancer regions. - Set up an appointment today at (310) 360-9520 See more
