From the time that 'Rolling in the Deep' singer Adele became controversial due to her throat surgery, it seemed that the occurrence of this health issue became a trend amongst singers in the industry. So what could be the reason behind this?

One of the main reasons is these artists are pushing their singing capacity to the limit. With more shows and tours that they have to do, their vocal chords are susceptible to more stress and eventually deterioration.

According to Dr. Steven Zeitels of the Masschusetts General Hospital, singers are considered as 'vocal athletes.' Hence, they need to remind themselves that rest plays a big role for their voices to recover.

These days, singers are not just settled with performing on tours but they also do extra hard work on making videos to post over YouTube. This is due to the economic crisis that the music industry has been suffering. and singers are pushing all their best to make the most out of every earning opportunity.

Vices play a huge role too in causing these singers to go under the knife. No matter how tired they are already, many modern singers of today do vices like smoking, drinking alcohol and even drugs which can gravely affect their vocal chords.

At the end of it all, each has their own personal reason on why they have ended up with such an ailment. If there's one thing we wish for them is for all to get well so that they can continue to deliver great music to many.
