    Vocal fold nodules or nodes can be compared to calluses. Nodules [generally] develop in pairs, one on each fold. Women are more at risk than men for vocal nodules. 'Heavy metal' punishes the voice with coarse phonation.

    Nodules
    By Daniel K. Robinson (2006)

    The one vocal health issue that seems to haunt every singer's dreams is vocal
    nodules. "Vocal fold nodules or nodes can be compared to calluses, usually
    appearing as a result of friction because of an incomplete closure of the glottis:
    singing with a hoarse [or breathy] voice can produce nodules. Forcing your voice
    to do things it can't, and providing inadequate breath support (causing 'wild' air
    to escape through the glottis) are other potential causes. You can get nodules
    after just one night of overusing your voice! Nodules [generally] develop in
    pairs, one on each fold. Women are more at risk than men." (Pinksterboer, H.
    Tipbook Vocals: The Singing Voice. 2002) Over the years it has been thought
    that any form of contemporary singing would result in nodules and other forms
    of voice disorders, and while genre's such as 'Heavy Metal' punish the voice with
    coarse phonation, generally most singing that is supported by a well informed
    and trained voice should avoid vocal injury's such as nodules.
