What ent specialists treat
ENT — ear, nose and throat, also called otolaryngology — treats blocked and runny noses, sinus infections, ear pain and discharge, hearing loss, giddiness, sore throats, tonsil problems, hoarseness and snoring. ENT surgeons work with an endoscope for much of this, so many procedures are day-care. Allergy is behind a large share of nose and sinus symptoms, and is usually addressed first.
Difficulty breathing or swallowing, sudden hearing loss in one ear, or a nosebleed that will not stop after twenty minutes of pressure needs same-day emergency care.
