Andy Dominianni Sick
Dominianni was diagnosed with rare vocal afflictions, abductor spasmodic dysphonia, in 2016 which he initially thought was lung cancer. The disease targets the voice muscles in the larynx, or voice box. As a result, his cords involuntarily spasmed causing voice breaks and a strained tone. He then developed muscle tension dysphonia(MTD) as he tried unnatural physical methods to prevent his voice from breaking and straining.
For his treatment, he was prescribed oral medication to help ease the MTD and Botox to address the ABSD component. He receives Botox injections approximately every three months. Further, he uses the professional singer’s technique of breathing diaphragmatically and intentionally avoids swift catch breaths and his chest and shoulder from raising when he’s speaking to maintain a normal, continuous tonal flow.
