Preparing for Your Procedure

During this procedure, you will be under anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Your surgeon will use a scope with a small camera and insert it through your mouth, into your throat, esophagus, and voice box. Your surgeon can explore these regions and identify any irregularities. Depending on the results, your doctor can form a diagnosis and recommend treatment accordingly. After the procedure, patients may experience the following symptoms in the days following:

  • A sore throat
  • Deeper, hoarse voice
  • Coughing or spitting up very smaller amounts of blood

If these symptoms continue after a few days, you should consult your doctor so they can ensure you are recovering safely from the examination.
