Is it safe to have an endoscapy when you have a head cold?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: It is safe to have an upper GI endoscopy with a head cold, but you are reliant on breathing through your nose. If you have a head cold, it will be more difficult to breathe and the procedure may be more uncomfortable.
