ENT, or otolaryngology, focuses on diagnosing and treating ear, nose, and throat disorders. Our top ENT specialists in Chennai provide comprehensive care. We address conditions from ear infections and sinusitis to a deviated septum, using advanced diagnostics and personalized treatment plans for each patient.

Comprehensive Care

Ear Infections: Whether it’s an outer ear infection (otitis externa), middle ear infection (otitis media), or inner ear issues, our treatments aim to relieve symptoms and restore hearing.
Sinusitis: Chronic or acute inflammation of the sinuses can cause significant discomfort. We offer treatments to reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms.
Tonsillitis: Inflammation of the tonsils, often requiring medication or surgery depending on severity.
Deviated Septum: A condition where the nasal septum is misaligned, causing breathing difficulties. Septoplasty is a common surgical procedure used to correct this issue.
Endoscopic Nasal and Sinus Surgery: Minimally invasive procedure to treat sinus issues, improve breathing, and alleviate nasal blockages using endoscopic techniques.
Coblation Surgery for Snoring: Advanced, minimally invasive treatment using radiofrequency to reduce snoring by gently removing excess tissue from the airway.

Ear Symptoms

Hearing Loss: This can be partial or complete and may affect one or both ears. It can occur suddenly or develop gradually. Hearing loss may be accompanied by ringing in the ears (tinnitus) or a feeling of fullness.
Ear Pain: Sharp or dull pain in the ear can be a sign of infection or other issues. It may be persistent or come and go, often accompanied by discomfort in the surrounding area.
Discharge: Fluid or pus leaking from the ear can indicate an infection or inflammation, such as otitis media.

Nasal Symptoms

Nasal Congestion: Blockage or stuffiness in the nasal passages can make breathing through the nose difficult. This symptom is often caused by allergies, sinus infections, or a deviated septum.
Runny Nose: A clear or colored discharge from the nose can be a sign of viral infections, such as the common cold, or allergic reactions.
Sinus Pressure: Pain or pressure around the eyes, cheeks, or forehead may suggest sinusitis or inflammation of the sinuses.

Throat Symptoms

Sore Throat: Persistent pain or irritation in the throat can be caused by infections like pharyngitis or tonsillitis. It may be accompanied by difficulty swallowing or a scratchy sensation.
Persistent Cough: A cough that lingers beyond a few weeks can indicate underlying conditions, such as chronic sinusitis or laryngitis.
Hoarseness: Changes in voice quality, such as raspiness or loss of voice, can result from vocal cord issues or throat infections.

Causes and Risk Factors in ENT

Genetic Predispositions: Family history of chronic sinusitis, hearing loss, or tonsillitis increases the risk of ENT disorders due to genetic influences.
Air Pollution: Exposure to pollutants like smoke and industrial chemicals can irritate the respiratory tract, causing asthma and sinus infections.
Allergens: Pollen, dust mites, and pet dander can trigger allergic reactions, leading to nasal congestion, sneezing, and itchy eyes.
Irritants: Strong odors, cleaning chemicals, or smoke can irritate nasal and throat tissues, causing inflammation and discomfort.
Bacterial Infections: Bacteria like Streptococcus can cause strep throat, ear infections, and sinusitis, impacting overall ENT health.
Viral Infections: Viruses responsible for colds and flu can cause cough, sore throat, and nasal congestion, affecting the ENT system.
Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, excessive alcohol, and poor oral hygiene can lead to chronic throat irritation and increased risk of ENT cancers.
