Eduin Caz’s Hospital Photo Has Fans Concerned for Singer’s Health
The group Firm released an official announcement on social media, stating that the singer had a laryngeal stroboscopy, which is a test of the vocal cords’ motion.
When the vocal chords are vibrating too quickly for the human eye to see, a strobe light is used to create a series of images that appear to be a slowed-down vibration of the cords. This is used to check how well they are vibrating and whether or not they’re working properly.
They also learned that he had gone for a gastric endoscopy to ensure a more thorough examination, during which they discovered a “hiatal hernia with changes in the esophageal mucosa.”
A hiatal hernia is when the stomach bulges into the chest via a hole in the diaphragm, which separates the two regions of the body. Most individuals do not have any symptoms, although if they do get heartburn or an acid reflex, proton pump inhibitor drugs to reduce acid production and antacids that neutralize stomach acid can assist.
Meanwhile, the esophageal mucosa is a protective barrier that prevents acid reflux in the “food pipe.”
Caz is resting and receiving therapy for the next few days. We need to get this year started off on the right foot!
