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. The tests required before and during the consultation by an ENT surgeon include:

  • Nasal Endoscopy
  • Otoscopy
  • Throat Culture Test

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?

A person needs to consult an ENT surgeon in case of below situations:

  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
  8. Deformities affecting the neck and head
  9. Nasal congestion and nose bleeds

An ENT surgeon will evaluate your symptoms and perform the required tests to find out the underlying conditions. They will analyze the test reports and may discuss with other doctors to determine the best possible treatment options.
