The correct answer is  Vocal nodules typically present at the junction of the anterior one-third and posterior two-third as this is the area which is subjected to maximum trauma. Speech therapy and educating the patient in using their voice is the recommended to prevent its recurrence. The patient also has gastro oesophageal reflux for which proton pump inhibitors should be prescribed.
