Also known as paradoxical vocal fold motion or exercise induced laryngeal obstruction
This is a breathing disorder where the vocal folds get "confused" and start to close off when someone is trying to breathe in. This is often in response to exercise or to strong odors.
This is especially prevelant in adolescent athletes.
