A list of puns related to "Pharynx"
Alright, how do you guys pronounce the above?
Fair-nicks Or Fair-inks
Hi!! I didn't know we couldn't post images on Thursdays, lol! I have a 20 inch Reformed Pharynx plush available for purchase immediately. Made by me. Made with minky fabric, with embroidered features, and stuffed with polyfil. I will ship worldwide, though offer free shipping within the US. Typically my 20 inch plushies run about $300 to start, but I'm sort of desperate for food money for my family right now so I'm offering a slight discount if purchased today. If interested, please send me a message and/or comment here. I'd be hally to send an image to anyone interested. Thank you so much!!
First of all, if you are using Philips Dreamstation please donβt panic over this. Iβm not a medical expert by any means. Iβm just asking here to see if anyone has a similar experience. It is very likely not related. More importantly, if the device has been prescribed to you please donβt stop using it without consulting your doctor. You could read about the recall of Dreamstation devices in Philips website.
So, my dad has been diagnosed recently with pharynx cancer. When we asked the doctor about the possible cause, he said it is usually related to air pollution. He asked my dad if he smokes. He does not at all. He asked him if he works in an air polluted environment. He does not.
I came across Philips page about the recall of the dreamstation device. My dad has been using it for a long time. It caught my eyes the mentioning of the possibility of some chemical substances leakage. Could this be the reason behind what has happened to my dad?
I tried to get information from the company that sells the device here in my country (not the US of course) but they didnβt help.
Edit: Iβm not considering pursuing any legal action against any company. The point of this post is just to see if there is anyone else who shares the same situation as ours. There are a lot of people who use this device on a daily basis. I just wanted to make sure it is not dangerous.
It's been demonstrated that PCR tests can still test positive for viral RNA days and sometimes weeks after the virus has been cleared from the body.
The viral RNA isn't actually from viable virus, but the remains of destroyed virus.
How do these viral RNA fragments manage to persist for so long in the nasal pharynx? Wouldn't fragile RNA be physically degraded and also cleared within a week or so from sneezing, breathing, swallowing, and ciliary action?
I haven't heard of rapid antigen tests doing the same thing (still testing positive when virus has already been cleared). Why is there a difference between mRNA PCR and antigen tests? Wouldn't both mRNA and antigen proteins be cleared from the sampling areas at roughly the same rate?
Iβve been practicing my voice for a couple of months now, dedicated 30-60min sessions daily each evening and small things throughout the day. I feel like Iβve made considerable progress since I started, but it seems like Iβve been stuck on a plateau recently. Thereβs something just off about my voice - it doesnβt sound clearly male, but thereβs something about it that keeps me from hearing it as female. Itβs like thereβs a persistent bass component underpinning it at all times and no matter what I do, I just canβt get rid of it, not even for a moment here or there.
For reference, this is what Iβm working with currently: https://voca.ro/1is1leFiLv9s
I feel like my larynx height is fine, I can comfortably hold it a tiny bit lower than if I do the swallow and hold exercise. The pitch could use some work for sure, but my understanding is that the issue I'm having is a resonance issue, which should be addressable independent of the pitch. So based on L's guide, my suspicions are throat closure or twang are the primary components I might possibly be missing, but I'm really not sure what exactly the issue is, to be honest. I've attempted both a bit, but it's totally possible I wasn't doing them correctly and don't know what the effects of those are actually supposed to sound like.
Iβd be super grateful if yβall could have a listen and give me some pointers/suggestions on where to go from here.
I was having fun pronouncing the labio-dental trill when I wandered across the pulmonic consonants right. Right, past the safe dental/alveolar consonants and towards the rare, scary back of the mouth. Thatβs when I saw it. A trill. Not just any trill, but a trill behind the uvula. I didnβt get any sleep last night knowing I could trill my pharynx, a part of my mouth I didnβt even know existed.
What is my Pharynx and how do I trill it?
Summary:
Scientists find a new organ in humans - the tubarial salivary glands in the posterior naso-pharynx area - finding may explain incidence of dry mouth in those receiving radiation in head/neck area (as radiologists avoid the known salivary glands but did not know to avoid these glands in the past)
