Robert F. Kennedy Jr. discusses his struggle with spasmodic dysphonia, a condition that affects his voice, making it strained and tremulous, but stronger with increased use, impacting his presidential campaign aspirations. He expresses a desire to sound better, emphasizing the neurological nature of the injury.
Spasmodic dysphonia, also known as laryngeal dystonia, not only affects Kennedy but about 50,000 individuals in North America, with cases often occurring in midlife and more frequently in women. The condition has gained attention leading to increased awareness and diagnosis at younger ages.
