What does the examination include?

A specialist hearing exam is a thorough evaluation of your auditory system, performed by an otolaryngologist—a doctor specialized in ear, nose, and throat conditions. This exam is painless, takes about 20 to 30 minutes, and allows for accurate diagnosis of various ear issues. An ENT ear check typically includes:

• Medical history and clinical exam: The doctor will talk with you about symptoms, past illnesses, and treatments. Then they will examine the ear structures through inspection and gentle palpation.
• Otoscopy: The specialist uses an otoscope to check the outer ear canal and eardrum. This helps detect inflammation, wax buildup, and other changes.
• Audiometry: This test measures how well you hear tones and frequencies. It helps determine the degree and type of hearing loss.
• Tympanometry: This test measures the mobility of the eardrum and pressure in the middle ear. It’s important for diagnosing middle ear infections and Eustachian tube problems.
• Additional diagnostic procedures: If needed, the doctor may recommend further tests such as lab work, endoscopy, or allergy tests.

Our team of ENT specialists at Dr Prlja Medical uses modern equipment and treats every patient with care and professionalism. Throughout the examination, you will receive clear information and feel safe.

When should you schedule a specialist ENT ear examination?

If you notice any of the following symptoms, it’s recommended to consult an ENT specialist for a thorough evaluation:

• Ear pain or pressure: This may signal a middle ear infection (otitis media), often caused by fluid buildup behind the eardrum, which creates discomfort and pressure.
• Tinnitus (ringing in the ear) or noise: Hearing sounds like ringing, buzzing, or hissing without an external source may be a sign of tinnitus, often linked to damage in hearing cells or other conditions.
• Hearing loss or impairment: Gradual or sudden hearing loss can result from infections, earwax buildup, or nerve damage.
• Frequent ear infections: Recurrent infections might indicate chronic issues that require specialist care and treatment.
• Ear discharge: Fluid coming from the ear could suggest infection or a perforated eardrum.
• Vertigo or balance problems: A sense of spinning, instability, or imbalance may relate to inner ear disorders.

Early detection and diagnosis of these symptoms allow for timely treatment and can prevent complications. If you are experiencing any of these issues, contact us to schedule an ENT ear examination.
