At Faridabad, diagnostic testing for adenoiditis therapy are available.
An otolaryngologist or ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist can diagnose and treat adenoiditis. An ENT specialist is a doctor who specialises in the treatment of infections, illnesses, and ailments affecting the ear, nose, and throat.
If you have adenoiditis symptoms, your doctor will run the following diagnostic tests on you:
Physical examination and medical history: to discover the specific site of the illness, as well as any familial or medical history that predisposes the patient to throat infections like adenoiditis.
- Throat swabs: to evaluate a sample of bacteria/virus obtained from the throat and identify the organism that is causing the condition.
- Blood culture: It aids in determining the severity of the infection by determining if the pathogen is also present in the blood.
- X-rays: X-rays can be used to determine the size of the adenoid glands as well as the amount of infection and inflammation.
- Endoscopy: An endoscope is put into the throat to see the throat region in order to identify the degree and severity of the problem.
Faridabad adenoidectomy surgery
An adenoidectomy is a relatively simple surgical procedure in which the adenoid glands are fully removed under either general or local anaesthesia. Using a retractor, the surgeon will hold the mouth open during the procedure. Adenoids can be removed surgically using a variety of ways. Adenoids are often cauterised or removed through tiny incisions. After Following that, the incisions are sealed with a heating device (electrocauterization). In extreme circumstances, the patient may need to be hospitalised for a short period of time, although the surgery is usually conducted as an outpatient treatment.
