ENT Services

ENT stands for Ear, Nose, and Throat. ENT specialists, also known as otolaryngologists, are medical doctors trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions affecting these areas of the head and neck, including:

• Ears: Hearing loss, ear infections, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), balance problems, and ear canal problems.
• Nose: Sinus issues, allergies, nosebleeds, trouble breathing, and nasal polyps.
• Throat: Tonsillitis, chronic sore throat, swallowing difficulties, and voice problems.

In addition to these core areas, ENT doctors may also treat conditions in the:

• Larynx (voice box)
• Upper part of the esophagus (swallowing tube)
• Mouth and face (related to ENT functions)
• Neck (some lymph nodes and salivary glands)

ENT services can involve both medical and surgical treatments. Doctors may prescribe medications, perform in-office procedures, or recommend surgery for certain conditions.
