Dr Tamer Fawzy - Flexible Laryngoscopy Landing

Flexible laryngoscopy is a quick, painless throat examination that allows your ENT specialist to examine your larynx (voice box) and vocal cords using a small camera.

Unlike older methods, this test is performed through the nose, making it comfortable and gag-free.

Why is Flexible Laryngoscopy done?

This procedure is commonly recommended for patients who experience:

  • Hoarseness or voice changes
  • Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia)
  • Chronic cough or throat irritation
  • Globus sensation (feeling something stuck in the throat)
  • Snoring or breathing issues
  • Acid reflux affecting the throat (LPR)

Early diagnosis with laryngoscopy helps detect conditions affecting the vocal cords, throat, and airway.

How is the procedure performed?

  • You sit comfortably in the clinic
  • A gentle nasal spray may be used
  • A thin flexible camera is passed through your nose
  • You may be asked to speak so we can assess vocal cord movement
  • The test takes 2–3 minutes only
  • No needles. No sedation. No downtime.
