Sujana Chandrasekhar, MD ENT New York

ENT stands for Ear, Nose, and Throat. It is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the ears, nose, throat, and related structures of the head and neck. ENT specialists, also known as otolaryngologists, are trained to manage a wide range of disorders and diseases in these areas.

What is ENT?

Common ENT problems include:

<ul>
	<li>Ear: Otitis media, otitis externa, tinnitus, hearing loss.</li>
	<li>Nose: Rhinitis, sinusitis, nasal polyps, deviated septum, allergic rhinitis.</li>
	<li>Throat: Pharyngitis, tonsillitis, laryngitis, strep throat, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).</li>
</ul>

What are some common ear, nose, and throat problems?

To help prevent ear infections, you should:

<ul>
	<li>Maintain good hand hygiene</li>
	<li>Avoid exposure to secondhand smoke</li>
	<li>Keep vaccinations up to date, including the pneumococcal and influenza vaccines</li>
	<li>Avoid prolonged exposure to loud noises</li>
	<li>Dry your ears thoroughly after swimming and bathing</li>
	<li>Treat allergies promptly and effectively</li>
</ul>

How can I prevent ear infections?

Symptoms of sinusitis may include:

<ul>
	<li>Facial pain or pressure</li>
	<li>Nasal congestion or blockage</li>
	<li>Thick nasal discharge</li>
	<li>Post-nasal drip</li>
	<li>Reduced sense of smell</li>
	<li>Coughing, particularly at night</li>
	<li>Headache</li>
	<li>Fatigue</li>
</ul>

What are the symptoms of sinusitis?

Nasal polyp treatment options can involve the following:

<ul>
	<li>Nasal corticosteroid sprays to reduce inflammation</li>
	<li>Oral corticosteroids for severe cases</li>
	<li>Allergy medications to manage underlying allergies</li>
	<li>Saline nasal rinses to promote sinus drainage</li>
	<li>Surgical removal of polyps in certain cases</li>
</ul>

How are nasal polyps treated?

Tonsillitis is often caused by viral or bacterial infections. The most common bacteria responsible for tonsillitis is Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus). Viral causes can include the common cold viruses, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), or adenovirus.

What causes tonsillitis?

Yes, allergies can affect the ears, nose, and throat. Allergic rhinitis, commonly known as hay fever, can cause symptoms such as sneezing, itching, nasal congestion, and post-nasal drip. Allergies can also trigger ear problems such as ear congestion, itching, and inflammation of the Eustachian tubes.

Can allergies affect the ears, nose, and throat?

Tinnitus treatment varies depending on the underlying cause and may include:

<ul>
	<li>Taking care of any underlying medical issues.</li>
	<li>Medications to treat related symptoms such as anxiety or depression.</li>
	<li>Tinnitus can be relieved by using sound therapy or masking devices.</li>
	<li>Tinnitus-related distress may benefit from cognitive behavioral treatment.</li>
	<li>Avoiding loud noises and protecting your ears.</li>
</ul>

What are the treatment options for tinnitus?

Hearing loss is diagnosed through a series of tests performed by an audiologist, including:

<ul>
	<li>Pure-tone audiometry to measure hearing sensitivity.</li>
	<li>Speech audiometry to assess speech understanding.</li>
	<li>Tympanometry to evaluate the middle ear function.</li>
	<li>Otoacoustic emissions (OAE) test to check the response of the inner ear.</li>
</ul>

How is hearing loss diagnosed?

Acute rhinitis refers to a sudden onset of inflammation of the nasal passages, usually due to a viral infection or exposure to allergens. It typically resolves within a few days to a week. Chronic rhinitis refers to long-term inflammation of the nasal passages lasting for more than 3 months. It can be caused by allergies, irritants, or underlying medical conditions.

What is the difference between acute and chronic rhinitis?
