For a direct laryngoscopy, you'll be completely asleep under general anesthesia, so you won't feel anything. Direct laryngoscopy is typically performed in a hospital setting or an outpatient surgical center. Using the laryngoscope, the doctor will carefully open your airway to directly visualize the larynx. If we need to take any tissue samples (biopsies) or remove any small growths, we can do that during the procedure as well. You'll be closely monitored by our medical team while you're under anesthesia and during your recovery.

Eating a healthy diet with lots of fruits and vegetables can give your body the vitamins and antioxidants it needs to stay healthy overall, including your throat.
Consider using a humidifier, especially in dry climates or during heating/cooling seasons, to maintain moisture in the air and prevent throat irritation.

Hi there! The throat is more complex than your throat has distinct parts that need specific evaluation techniques? At MyENTCare in Pontnewydd, we perform thorough nasopharynx evaluation regularly. Let's explore about these important procedures. ⚕️

Indirect laryngoscopy is the simplest method and is often performed during a routine office visit. Your doctor will use a small mirror attached to a long handle to view your larynx. We also use a bright light, often from a headlight we wear, to help us see everything clearly. This method doesn't require any anesthesia and is generally well-tolerated.

Make sure you're getting enough sleep and try to manage stress, as these things can sometimes affect your throat.
Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, which contain vitamins and antioxidants that support overall health.

Anterior rhinoscopy is the most common method and is often performed during a routine office visit. We use a nasal speculum, which looks a bit like tweezers with rounded ends, to gently widen your nostril. A bright light source is essential for this technique to illuminate the nasal cavity effectively. This type of rhinoscopy doesn't usually need any numbing or anesthesia and is typically quite comfortable for most people.

Based on your symptoms and the initial findings, your doctor may utilize additional diagnostic tools during a detailed throat examination. These could include nasopharyngoscopy (a flexible scope to view the nasal passages and upper throat), stroboscopy (a special light to assess vocal cord vibration), or imaging tests like X-rays or CT scans.

The vocal cords, situated within the larynx, are essential not only for the production of your voice but also for proper breathing. During a detailed throat examination, particular attention is given to the vocal cords to ensure their health and proper function. We assess their appearance, movement during vocalization and breathing, and look for any signs of abnormalities. If there's an issue with your vocal cords, you might sound hoarse, your voice might change, you could have pain in your throat, or even have trouble breathing. Therefore, a thorough examination of the vocal cords is essential for accurately diagnosing and effectively managing a wide range of voice and throat disorders.

Minimize your exposure to irritants such as smoke, air pollution, and strong chemical odors.
Maintain good oral hygiene practices, including regular brushing and flossing, as oral health is closely linked to throat health.

The initial step usually involves a careful visual inspection of your mouth and throat. We'll use a light, and sometimes a little tool called a tongue depressor, to look at your tonsils, the dangly thing in the back of your throat (uvula), and the back of your throat itself (pharynx).

If a posterior rhinoscopy is needed, you'll typically be seated upright in the examination room. Your doctor may spray a local anesthetic into your throat to help minimize any gag reflex. Next, the doctor will carefully put the small mirror into your mouth and angle it so they can see the back of your nose and the upper part of your throat behind your nose. We might ask you to breathe through your nose to help us get a better view. This procedure also usually takes just a few minutes and might cause a brief sensation of gagging or discomfort.
