Objective: the aim is to evaluate the incidence of postoperative throat pain, nausea and vomiting in patients that have been packed with either conventional gauze or pharyngeal tampons.  Methods: We included adult patients who were booked for a rhinology surgery that needed throat packs. They were allocated into two groups, pharyngeal tampons, and conventional ribbon gauze. They were then assessed using visual analog scales and Post-operative nausea and vomiting impact scale respectively in the 1st, 4th, and 24th hour. Data was analyzed using SPSS software version 25.  Results: There is evidence to suggest that using pharyngeal tampons reduces the mean VAS score at 4 hours compared to using Gauze. [t87=3.294, p=0.001), the is no statistical evidence that show a difference in the other Visual analogue scores or post-operative nausea and vomiting scores.  Conclusion: The study shows that the use of pharyngeal tampons is associated with decreased pain scores, however, it also shows that there no difference in postoperative nausea and vomiting.
