Does swallowing method or eating of certain items in our daily life affect our speaking power. A person may have difficulty controlling the tongue and safely swallowing food or liquid. The muscles in the tongue and throat are the same ones used in making sounds. Therefore, the therapy that helps speech can also help swallowing.

May be swallowing problem is causing problem to speak "T". A person may have swallowing problems if there is an injury or illness that affects the nerves or muscles in the mouth and throat. Swallowing problems can also happen if there has been surgery to remove parts of the mouth or throat.

Removing of tonsils may cause speech problem???
