FAQ's Related to ENT Surgeon

What does an ENT surgeon do?

An ENT surgeon is a doctor who has received training in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the ear, nose, throat, head, and neck through surgery. Some of the most common test performed for the diagnosis of ENT conditions are:

  • Throat Culture Test
  • Nasal Endoscopy
  • Otoscopy

Tympanometry is done to diagnose problems that could lead to hearing loss. The test measures the overall movement of the tympanic membrane in response to the changes in pressure. The test can help your doctor determine if you have fluid in the middle ear, middle ear infection, or issues with the eustachian tube.

When should you go to see an ENT surgeon?

Different ENT conditions produce different symptoms. Your general physician will refer you to an ENT specialist for a better diagnosis and treatment of your symptoms. Some of the symptoms which you need to discuss with an ENT specialist are:

  1. Sore throat, sinus pain, ear aches
  2. Snoring that is linked with breathing problems
  3. Tinnitus (ringing sound in your ears)
  4. Vertigo, problems with your balance, dizziness
  5. Losing hearing, voice or sense of smell
  6. Blockage in the airway
  7. Difficulty swallowing
