FAQs

An ENT doctor, also known as an otorhinolaryngologist, is a physician who specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the ear, nose, throat, and head and neck region.

Common signs that you might need an ENT specialist include persistent ear infections, sinus issues, hearing loss, recurrent sore throats, voice changes, and trouble swallowing.

ENT specialists treat a variety of conditions such as ear infections, tinnitus, sinusitis, allergies, sleep apnea, throat infections, tonsillitis, voice disorders, head and neck cancers, and facial trauma. Ear-Related FAQs

Ear-Related FAQs

Tinnitus can result from ear infections, hearing loss, exposure to loud sounds, medications, and sometimes due to underlying health issues. An ENT doctor can help determine the cause and possible treatments.

Hearing loss is usually diagnosed with a hearing test called audiometry. ENT specialists or audiologists perform this test to assess the type and degree of hearing loss.

Generally, earwax is a natural protective substance and should be left alone unless it causes blockage. If impacted, an ENT specialist can safely remove it.

Nose-Related FAQs

Sinusitis is the inflammation of the sinuses, which can be caused by infections, allergies, or structural issues. Treatments include nasal sprays, antibiotics (for bacterial infections), and sometimes surgery.

Yes. Snoring can be caused by nasal obstructions, enlarged tonsils, or sleep apnea. An ENT doctor can assess and recommend appropriate treatments.

Allergies can be managed through avoidance of triggers, medications, nasal sprays, and in some cases, allergy shots or immunotherapy. ENT doctors can help design a treatment plan.

Throat-Related FAQs

Recurrent sore throats can be caused by infections (viral or bacterial), allergies, acid reflux, or tonsillitis. An ENT doctor can help diagnose the cause and suggest treatments.

A tonsillectomy is the surgical removal of the tonsils, often recommended for children or adults with recurrent tonsillitis or sleep apnea.

Hoarseness may be due to laryngitis, overuse, acid reflux, or even vocal cord growths. ENT doctors, especially laryngologists, specialize in diagnosing voice disorders.

Head and Neck FAQs

ENT specialists diagnose and treat head and neck cancers, including those in the throat, mouth, and sinuses. Treatment may involve surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or a combination.

Yes, especially if the pain is related to sinus issues or ear problems. An ENT can help diagnose the source of facial pain and recommend appropriate treatment.

A deviated septum is when the nasal septum is displaced to one side, causing breathing difficulty. Treatment might include nasal sprays or surgical correction (septoplasty).

ENT doctors play a key role in diagnosing and managing these conditions. For persistent or severe symptoms, an ENT consultation can provide relief and tailored treatment options.
