Conditions treated

View All

Tonsillitis (Inflammation of the Tonsils)

Tonsillitis is the inflammation of the tonsils, typically caused by viral or bacterial infections. It leads to sore throat, difficulty swallowing, fever, and swollen lymph nodes. Recurrent or severe tonsillitis may result in complications such as abscess formation, sleep disturbances, or breathing obstruction. Diagnosis is made through throat examination, rapid strep testing, or culture. Management includes symptomatic relief, antibiotics for bacterial causes, and, in recurrent or chronic cases, surgical removal of tonsils (tonsillectomy).

Ear Infections (Otitis Media / Otitis Externa)

Ear infections are common conditions affecting the middle ear (otitis media) or outer ear canal (otitis externa). Otitis media is frequently seen in children and often follows upper respiratory infections, causing fluid buildup behind the eardrum. Otitis externa, also known as swimmer’s ear, results from infection or inflammation of the ear canal, usually due to moisture or injury. Both conditions can cause pain, hearing discomfort, and irritation. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment prevent complications and hearing problems.

Hearing Loss

Hearing loss is a partial or complete reduction in the ability to hear sounds and can affect one or both ears. It may be conductive (outer or middle ear problems), sensorineural (inner ear or nerve damage), or mixed. Causes range from infections, noise exposure, and ageing to congenital conditions and trauma. Hearing loss can impact speech development, communication, learning, and quality of life. Early diagnosis through hearing tests enables timely treatment with medications, hearing aids, therapy, or surgery.

Snoring / Sleep Apnea

Snoring occurs when airflow is partially blocked during sleep, causing vibrations in the throat tissues. Sleep apnea is a more serious disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep, often due to airway obstruction (obstructive sleep apnea) or neurological issues (central sleep apnea). Both conditions can lead to poor sleep quality, daytime fatigue, cardiovascular complications, and cognitive issues. Diagnosis is made through sleep studies, and treatment ranges from lifestyle modifications and CPAP therapy to surgery in severe cases.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder in which the upper airway repeatedly becomes partially or completely blocked during sleep, causing interrupted breathing. This leads to poor sleep quality, daytime fatigue, and increased risk of cardiovascular problems, high blood pressure, and metabolic issues. Risk factors include obesity, large neck circumference, and certain anatomical features. Early diagnosis through sleep studies and proper management with lifestyle changes, CPAP devices, or surgery can improve sleep quality and overall health.

Sinusitis (Sinus Infection / Inflammation)

Sinusitis is the inflammation of the sinus cavities, often caused by bacterial, viral, or fungal infections, as well as allergies or nasal obstructions. It leads to impaired sinus drainage, causing pain, pressure, congestion, and sometimes fever. Sinusitis can be acute (short-term) or chronic (lasting more than 12 weeks). Early diagnosis and proper management help relieve symptoms, prevent complications such as chronic infections, and improve breathing and quality of life.

Deviated Nasal Septum (DNS)

A deviated nasal septum (DNS) occurs when the thin wall between the nostrils (septum) is displaced to one side, causing nasal obstruction. It can result from congenital factors or trauma and may lead to difficulty breathing, chronic sinus infections, snoring, or nosebleeds. Mild cases may be asymptomatic, while severe deviations can impact quality of life. Diagnosis is usually through physical examination and nasal endoscopy. Treatment ranges from medical management with decongestants to surgical correction via septoplasty.
