Mindfulness-based stress reduction, or MBSR, is a program created by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical School for people with no or little meditation experience. MBSR is great for anyone who wants to reduce stress; it's an especially good match for people suffering from chronical physical pain. MBSR includes training in the nature of the mind, mindful breathing, a mindful body scan, and yoga. Taking a class in a group is a unique live experience, but for those who don't have access to MBSR locally, the University of Massachusetts Medical School's Center for Mindfulness offers an online course (https://www.umassmemorialhealthcare.org/umass-memorial-center-mindfulness).  [2017] - Elizabeth Blackburn

More detailed throat exams used to require sedation because of the difficulty in getting any sort of instrument past the powerful gag reflex. However, an exam called the transnasal flexible laryngoscopy (TFL) is now the preferred method for viewing your larynx and the surrounding structures. The brilliance of any transnasal exam is that it involves passing an instrument through your nose, thereby allowing a physician to bypass the gag reflex and view the tissues and structures below. What will typically be examined are the vocal folds—do they look swollen and red, likely to be the source of hoarseness or throat pain? Is there evidence of postnasal drip or accumulated mucus, the possible cause of chronic cough or a lumplike sensation in the throat?  [2017] - Jonathan Aviv
