Ear & Nasal Examination

Start with
the anatomy.

The ear canal is curved and delicate, leading to the tympanic membrane and middle ear.

The nasal cavity is longer and more variable, with turbinates and meatuses that require flexible navigation.

Different anatomy. Different approach. Better outcomes.
