Overview
The physical examination usually is not helpful in confirming the diagnosis of uncomplicated esophagitis. However, the examination may reveal other potential sources of chest or abdominal pain.
Physical Examination
The physical examination of the esophagitis is following:[1][2]
Appearance of the Patient
- Appearance is usually normal in patients with esophagitis, but patients with infectious esophagitis are usually cachectic given the immunocompromised status.
Vital Signs
- Temperature- Hyperthermia in patients with infectious esophagitis.
- Heart rate- Tachycardia in patients with infectious esophagitis.
- Respiratory rate- Normal
- Blood pressure- Normal range 120/80-140/90
Skin
- Skin- Normal
HEENT
- Sclera- Anicteric
- Extra-ocular movements- normal
- Pupils reactive to light / reactive to accommodation
- Ophthalmoscopic exam is normal
- Hearing acuity normal
- Weber test-normal
- Rinne test-positive
- Ear canal- normal
Neck
- Normal- Jugualar venous pulse
- Carotid pulse- normal
- Lymphnodes-normal
- Thyroid-normal
Lungs
- Symmetric chest expansion
- Lungs are resonant
- Normal vesicular breath sounds heard
- Wheezing may be present
- Egophony absent
- Bronchophony absent
- Normal tactile fremitus
Heart
Abdomen
- Abdominal examination is normal
- No organomegaly
