LASER assisted vaporisation of the vocal cord nodules is the best option! It gives instant relief and needs about 2-3 hours at most of hospitalisation.
It is safe and only requires short GA( about 15 minutes). In my clinic I sometimes post such cases as Lunch-break Surgeries...you come to me on your lunch break and return to work in 2 hours...no physical rest required.
