A consultation with Dr. Jinesh Shah ENT Surgeon can help with problems of the ears, nose and throat, which are closely linked and often affect one another. Common reasons to see an ENT surgeon include ear pain or discharge, reduced hearing, a blocked or running nose, repeated sinus trouble, a persistent sore throat, hoarseness, snoring and difficulty swallowing. Seek advice if a symptom lasts more than two weeks, keeps returning or interferes with sleep, work or school.
Ear pain, a feeling of fullness, discharge and ringing are common complaints. Causes range from earwax and infection to fluid behind the eardrum. Avoid putting cotton buds, pins or oils into the ear, as these can push wax in or cause injury. Reduced hearing can develop gradually, so ask for a hearing test if you or your family notice it. Sudden hearing loss, severe pain, dizziness, or discharge with fever needs prompt medical attention.
A blocked nose, sneezing, and a runny nose may be due to allergy, infection, a deviated septum, or nasal polyps. Sinusitis often brings facial pressure, headache, and thick nasal discharge. Allergies tend to cause itching and watery discharge, and treatment depends on the cause. For a nosebleed, sit upright, lean forward, and pinch the soft part of the nose for ten minutes. Get medical help if the bleeding does not stop or follows an injury.
Most sore throats settle within a few days, but a persistent one needs a proper look. Repeated tonsil infections, difficulty or pain in swallowing, a feeling of a lump in the throat, and a hoarse voice all deserve evaluation. Hoarseness that lasts more than three weeks should always be examined, especially in smokers. Difficulty breathing, drooling, or being unable to swallow is an emergency, so go to the nearest emergency department straight away.
Occasional snoring is common, but loud, regular snoring with pauses in breathing, choking at night, daytime sleepiness or morning headaches may point to obstructive sleep apnoea. This condition affects sleep quality and can strain the heart over time. Causes include blocked nasal passages, enlarged tonsils and excess weight. An evaluation looks for the cause, and treatment may include lifestyle changes, treating nasal problems or other measures, chosen to suit you.
Children often suffer from ear infections, blocked noses, sore throats and enlarged tonsils or adenoids. Signs of trouble include repeated ear pulling, poor response to sound, mouth breathing, snoring and frequent throat infections. Hearing problems can affect speech and learning, so do not wait if you suspect one. Never put objects or drops in a child's ear without advice, and see a doctor if symptoms persist or recur.
