Brief Answer: FNAC Detailed Answer: Hi. Sorry to know that he has no insurance. The best way is to get at least a tissue diagnosis. The cheapest ways are - X-ray- I hope this is done. FNAC=Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology. Would not cost much and we get to know whether this is a Benign ( not cancerous) or a cancerous growth. This is most important point as this is related to life and death. Please get this done and see if anything can be done to get him under insurance, talk to people who do it and you may get a way there too.
Note: Consult an experienced Otolaryngologist / ENT Specialist online for further follow up on ear, nose, and throat issues - Book a Call now.
