Emergency Care
What if you have asthma? Rhinoscopy can be performed if you have asthma, but it is best for your breathing to be well controlled at the time of the exam. You should continue taking your medications. Recently, doctors have discovered an unusual disorder of the larynx and vocal cords which mimics asthma. Patients may have an "asthma attack" with a croupy sounding bark or cough, and may even visit the emergency room for help. Interestingly, medications used to treat asthma don't work well, and breathing tests in the allergists' office suggest the upper airway and vocal cords are involved. Rhinoscopy can then be used to examine these airway and cords and make the diagnosis, and the easiest may to make the diagnosis is to examine the vocal cords with the rhinoscope during an actual attack!
