Laryngospasm is an uncontrolled or involuntary muscular contraction (spasm) of the vocal folds.[1] It may be triggered when the vocal cords or the area of the trachea below the vocal folds detects the entry of water, mucus, blood, or other substance. It may be associated with stridor or retractions.
