Shania Twain's Vocal Cord Issues
Shania Twain stopped singing because of a serious voice condition. She was diagnosed with dysphonia, which caused inflammation and swelling of her vocal cords. This made it painful and difficult to sing. The condition was linked to a bacterial infection that damaged her larynx.
The Lyme Disease Connection
Twain later revealed she had contracted Lyme disease, which contributed to her vocal problems. The illness caused severe fatigue and muscle issues that affected her ability to perform. She documented her health struggles in her memoir and discussed how the disease impacted her career.
Return to Music
After years of rest and rehabilitation, Twain worked with vocal therapists to regain her voice. She began performing again and released new music. Her return was documented in interviews and performances that showed her progress. For more details on her recovery, visit BBC News.
