Frequently asked Questions
What does an ENT doctor do?
An ENT doctor, or otolaryngologist, specializes in diagnosing and treating disorders of the ears, nose, throat, and related head/neck structures. Their scope includes medical and surgical care for hearing issues, sinus problems, voice disorders, and more. They often collaborate with audiologists or speech therapists for comprehensive treatment.
What conditions does an ENT doctor treat?
ENT Specialist Doctors treat a wide range of issues, including ear infections, sinusitis, tonsillitis, hearing loss, vertigo, nasal polyps, throat cancer, thyroid disorders, and facial trauma. Their work covers preventive care, diagnostics, and surgeries like tympanoplasty or septoplasty.
Do ENT doctors perform surgery?
ENT Specialist Doctors are trained surgeons. They perform procedures such as ear tube insertion, sinus surgery, tonsillectomy, and head/neck cancer removals, often using minimally invasive techniques.
What is the scope of ENT in pediatric care?
Pediatric ENT focuses on children’s unique needs, like recurrent ear infections, enlarged tonsils causing sleep apnea, cleft palate repairs, and speech delays. ENTs work with pediatricians for early interventions.
What non-surgical treatments do ENTs offer?
ENTs provide medications (antibiotics, steroids), allergy shots, hearing aids, speech therapy, and lifestyle advice for conditions like allergies or tinnitus.
What surgical procedures are common in ENT?
Common surgeries include ear tube insertion, septoplasty, tonsillectomy, sinus surgery, and thyroidectomy. ENTs use advanced techniques like endoscopy for minimally invasive options.
How do ENTs handle pediatric ENT issues?
For kids, ENTs address ear infections, adenoid issues, or tongue-tie with gentle procedures like frenectomy, often under anesthesia.
When should I see an ENT doctor?
See an ENT for persistent ear pain, hearing loss, nasal congestion, sore throat, voice changes, or head/neck lumps. Early consultation prevents complications.
What are the symptoms of an ear infection?
Ear infections (otitis media or externa) often cause ear pain, fever, hearing loss, discharge, or dizziness. In children, it may lead to irritability or balance issues. Seek ENT care if symptoms persist.
What causes tinnitus, and how is it treated?
Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) can result from noise exposure, age-related hearing loss, earwax buildup, or conditions like Meniere’s disease. Treatments include sound therapy, medications, or counseling; ENTs may recommend hearing aids for underlying hearing loss.
How is hearing loss diagnosed and treated by an ENT Specialist Doctor?
ENT Specialist Doctors use audiometry tests to diagnose sensorineural or conductive hearing loss. Treatments range from hearing aids and cochlear implants to surgeries like stapedectomy for otosclerosis.
What is vertigo, and when should I see an ENT?
Vertigo is a spinning sensation often linked to inner ear issues like benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) or vestibular neuritis. ENT Specialist Doctors perform balance tests and offer vestibular rehabilitation or canalith repositioning maneuvers.
Can an ENT Specialist Doctor treat perforated eardrums?
Can an ENT Specialist Doctor treat perforated eardrums? Yes, a perforated eardrum from infection or trauma can cause pain and hearing issues. ENT Specialist Doctors may repair it surgically (tympanoplasty) or monitor for natural healing, advising ear protection to prevent complications.
What are the signs of sinusitis, and how is it treated?
Sinusitis causes facial pain, nasal congestion, headaches, and thick discharge. Acute cases may resolve with antibiotics or decongestants; chronic sinusitis might require endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) by an ENT Specialist Doctor.
What is a deviated septum, and does it need surgery?
A deviated septum is a crooked nasal wall causing breathing difficulties, snoring, or recurrent infections. ENTs may recommend septoplasty surgery if symptoms are severe.
How do nasal polyps affect breathing, and what's the treatment?
Nasal polyps are growths in the nasal passages, often from allergies, leading to congestion and loss of smell. ENTs treat them with steroids or surgical removal (polypectomy) via endoscopy.
What causes allergic rhinitis, and how can an ENT help?
Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) triggers sneezing, itchy eyes, and congestion from allergens like pollen. ENTs offer allergy testing, antihistamines, nasal sprays, or immunotherapy shots.
Is balloon sinuplasty a common ENT procedure?
Yes, balloon sinuplasty is a minimally invasive procedure to open blocked sinuses, reducing the need for traditional surgery. It’s often used for chronic sinusitis and performed by ENTs.
What are the symptoms of tonsillitis, and when is tonsillectomy needed?
Tonsillitis causes sore throat, fever, and swollen glands. Recurrent cases may require tonsillectomy surgery by an ENT, especially if causing sleep apnea or infections.
How is laryngitis treated by an ENT doctor?
Laryngitis (voice loss) from overuse, infection, or acid reflux is treated with rest, hydration, and medications. ENTs may perform laryngoscopy to check for vocal cord issues.
What causes dysphagia (swallowing difficulties), and how is it managed?
Dysphagia can result from esophageal narrowing, neurological issues, or throat obstructions. ENTs diagnose via swallow studies and treat with dilation procedures or surgery.
Can an ENT treat vocal cord nodules?
