Laryngoscope Instrument

Product Description

Doctors do a laryngoscopy (lair-en-GOS-kuh-pee) to:

• look into what is causing a long-lasting cough, throat pain, ear pain, hoarseness or other voice problems, swallowing problems, or constant bad breath
• check for inflammation (swelling and irritation)
• look for a possible narrowing or blockage of the throat
• remove foreign objects, such as small toys swallowed by mistake
• get a sample of a mass or tissue in the throat or on the vocal cords
