Vocal Cords Inflammation

hi everyone! this is a video of what my vocal cords look like now. im delighted to say how much I feel Ive been improving with rest. although I dont have the reference video of the scope a month before this, I can confidently say I feel much better!

my vocal issues stemmed from a combination of excessive singing, night shift working (acid reflux), a cold, using my voice loudly for mothers in my l&d rotation, and my bodies inability to heal my vocal cords because of lack of sleep. this occurred march 2026. this video is from june 2026.

i just started speech as well (this video was with 1 session). to add i was also placed on 1 round of acid reflux medication, im picking up my second bottle today

my question is, can anyone tell me anything about my vocal cords? or any tips :) im confident ill be able to sing normally in half a year to a year
