FAQ's Related to ENT Surgeon

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:

  • Throat Culture Test
  • Otoscopy
  • Nasal Endoscopy

Tympanometry is a test that measures the movement and function of the eardrum and middle ear. The test is quick and painless if the eardrum or middle ear is not inflamed.

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
  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

If you show any of the above symptoms, make sure you book an appointment with an ENT specialist. The quicker you respond when you see a symptom, the faster you can receive treatment and avoid discomfort or pain. The ENT specialist will perform tests to find out the condition and will design the treatment plan accordingly.
