I wanted to know what to expect at my ENT visit. I have a wart-like growth in my left tonsillar area according to my dentist. A little history:I have no tonils or adenoids. The growth has been there over a year. It does not appear to be growing. It is not inflammed nor does it hurt. My throat is sometimes scratchy and I had an occassional buzzing/ringing/pressure in my left ear. I am HPV positive as I also have cervical dysplasia that is being treated. I just turned 40.
My question is will the ENT just take a look at the growth or will he do a biopsy the same day. I was orginally referred by my dentist to see an oral surgeon but when I called to schedule the appointment I was told it would be better to see an ENT as he would be able to treat me if the biopsy was positive.
I see the ENT Monday.
