FAQ's Related to ENT Surgeon

What does an ENT surgeon do?

An ENT surgeon is a medical specialist who is trained in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of conditions of the ear, nose, throat, head and neck. Some of the most common test performed for the diagnosis of ENT conditions are:

  • Nasal Endoscopy
  • Throat Culture Test
  • 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?

Ear, nose, and throat disorders like mild infections could often be treated at your home or by your general physician, but there are a few occasions when it is best to consult an ENT surgeon. Some of the symptoms which require a consultation with an ENT surgeon are:

  1. Sore throat, sinus pain, ear aches
