Hi my friend was born with a cyst in her voice box which makes it impossible for her to speak. is there any way she can get her voice back?

Hard to comment: These issues require a specialty evaluation with an ear/nose and throat specialist.It is usually done under anesthesia but might be done in a chair with specialized equipment. Treatment & outcome depend on what is found and whether any procedure would restore vocal cord function.
