Overview
- Carr said on his Life's A Beach podcast that he has been diagnosed with hypernasality, a condition that affects how his voice sounds.
- He explained the diagnosis accounts for his high-pitched, clipped tone and links it to chronic tension in his jaw.
- He is exploring treatment options that include speech or jaw therapy, and he referenced LeAnn Rimes’ jaw massage as an approach he hopes to try.
- Hypernasality occurs when the valve that should close between the mouth and nose during speech does not seal, letting air escape through the nose and creating a nasal sound that can lead to jaw clenching and pain.
- He recalled years of bullying over his voice and has not announced a treatment plan or procedure at this stage.
