According to the Tweet, she went to the hospital where the doctors diagnosed her with vocal cord nodules. These are benign white masses that form in the vocal folds, which can cause throat pain, vocal hoarseness, and vocal fatigue. They can also restrict airflow levels while talking. Because of this, she cannot stream or sing, thus will take a break in order to recover. The doctors told her that it would take about two weeks for the nodules to go away. However, that’s just an estimate, which is why her return window is unknown.

Over the past few years, Laplus has taken several breaks from streaming in order to focus on her health. In May 2023, she contracted COVID-19, for example. However, issues with her throat have started cropping up from around late 2023. In November 2023, she stated that she might take a small break from streaming since she’d been singing and yelling so much.
