For this type of pharyngoscopy, you'll probably just sit in a chair in our office. We'll spray some numbing medication into your nose or throat, depending on the approach, to make the procedure more comfortable. Next, the thin, flexible tube with the camera will be carefully passed through your nose or mouth and down into your throat to your pharynx. The camera sends live pictures to a screen, so we can see your pharynx and the structures around it moving as you talk or swallow. You might be asked to speak, cough, or swallow during the procedure to help evaluate the function of your throat. The whole process usually takes around 5 to 10 minutes and isn't typically painful, though you might feel a bit of pressure or a slight tickle in your nose or throat.

Hey there! �� Ever wondered what happens during a nose examination, especially when your doctor mentions something like a rhinoscopy? Our goal today is to make rhinoscopy easy to understand and show you how this detailed nasal examination helps us at MyENTCare keep your nose in top shape.

Anterior rhinoscopy is the most common method and is often performed during a routine office visit. Your doctor will use a nasal speculum, a small instrument that gently widens the nostril, to view the front part of your nasal cavity. A bright light, usually from a headlight worn by the doctor, is used to illuminate the area. You won't need any anesthesia for this, and most patients find it quite manageable.

If you're having an anterior rhinoscopy, you'll probably just sit comfortably in a chair in our office. The doctor will then gently insert the nasal speculum into one of your nostrils to widen the opening. We'll use the light from our headlight to see clearly inside your nasal passage. The doctor will then look at the skin inside your nose, the wall in the middle (septum), and the front parts of the structures that help warm and clean the air you breathe (turbinates). This is usually a quick procedure, often lasting only a few minutes, and while it's not typically painful, you might feel some slight pressure from the nasal speculum.
