What is an otolaryngologist?

What does an otolaryngologist check?

An otolaryngologist checks the condition of ENT organs: the doctor conducts a visual examination, palpation (touching) and endoscopy. Depending on which organ is the object of complaint, various instruments are used during the examination (ear speculum, nasoscope). If necessary, the doctor may prescribe additional examinations (x-ray, ultrasound, blood test).

After examination, an otolaryngologist establishes a diagnosis and prescribes a treatment regimen. As a rule, drug therapy is prescribed. In some cases (with adenoids, papillomas in auricle, nasal polyps), surgical intervention is required.
