The sternothyreoid muscle, also known as the sternothyreoid muscle, is responsible for the movement of the thyroid cartilage in the larynx. This muscle is located directly at the pharynx and can be felt by grasping the horse's pharynx. Unlike the mobility of the neck and head, this muscle plays an important role in the movement of the larynx. It has not been proven, but it is quite possible that tension in this muscle could cause problems such as coughing (laryngeal tenderness) or laryngeal noises (laryngeal wheezing).

It's important for riders to consider that horses that bite the snaffle bit convulsively or grind their teeth may have problems with this muscle, which can cause laryngeal noises or coughing. To date, there is no scientific research to support this assumption.
