A member asked:
I have a chronic sore throat; what will my otolaryngologist do to me?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk and examine: Surprisingly, there can be many different causes for a chronic sore throat (tonsillitis, post-nasal drip, reflux, allergies, etc). Your otolaryngologist will talk with you in great detail to understand your symptoms. Based on that conversation he will perform a complete head and neck examination to determine the cause of your chronic sore throat.
