Miley Cyrus has a "very large polyp" on her vocal cord but is "not willing" to have it removed in case it changes her voice.
The 'Flowers' hitmaker explained the sound of her distinctive low-pitched voice is partly due to both the growth and Reinke's Edema - swelling of the vocal folds due to fluid accumulation - and though the conditions mean she finds it "extremely difficult" to perform, she doesn't want to have surgery in case she no longer sounds like herself afterwards.
