ICD-10 code: J38. 5 Laryngeal spasm | gesund.bund.de.
The cause of vocal cord spasms is often unknown, and it is usually in response to a trigger such as anxiety or acid reflux. Acid reflux may cause a few drops of stomach acid backwash to touch the vocal cords, setting off the spasm. Laryngospasm can sometimes occur after an endotracheal tube is removed from the throat.

While laryngospasms affect your vocal cords (two bands of tissue housed inside of your larynx), bronchospasms affect your bronchi (the airways that connect your windpipe to your lungs). Both conditions result in sudden, frightening spasms — and both conditions can temporarily affect your ability to breathe and speak.
Laryngospasm refers to a sudden spasm of the vocal cords. Laryngospasms are often a symptom of an underlying condition. Sometimes they can happen as a result of anxiety or stress. They can also occur as a symptom of asthma, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or vocal cord dysfunction.
The space between the vocal folds and cricoid is called the subglottic area. Tumors of this region may also cause subacute upper airway obstruction symptoms. Such gradually growing tumors are often misdiagnosed and treated as asthma (5).
