๐Ÿฆป Myringoplasty โ€“ Clinical Experience from ENT Practice

Myringoplasty is a common ENT procedure performed to repair a perforated eardrum.

Most patients present with recurrent ear discharge and reduced hearing.

โœ… Benefits include:
โ€ข Stops repeated ear discharge
โ€ข Improves hearing
โ€ข Protects the middle ear
โ€ข Improves quality of life

The procedure is safe and effective when done at the right time.

Iโ€™m happy to share that all of my post-operative patients noticed better hearing, and most felt no need to repeat a hearing test.

Two patients underwent post-operative hearing assessments (for work requirements and insurance coverage), and both showed near-normal hearing ๐ŸŽ‰

Early ENT assessment truly makes a difference.

If you have persistent ear discharge or hearing difficulty, donโ€™t ignore it โ€” protect your hearing early.

๐Ÿฉบ Foreign Body in Esophagus
Last Saturday, I treated an 8-year-old child ๐Ÿ‘ฆ with a coin stuck in the esophagus.

Children are naturally curious and often put objects in their mouths. Swallowing coins, batteries, magnets, or small toy parts is common and dangerous in children.

A foreign body in the esophagus is a medical emergency ๐Ÿšจ. A foreign body stuck in the esophagus can lead to pain, infection, perforation, or breathing problems if not treated in time.

Thankfully, the coin was removed safely ๐Ÿ™.

๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•โ€ Quick Medical Advice for Parents:
๐Ÿ”น Keep small objects out of reach
๐Ÿ”น Supervise young children ๐Ÿงธ
๐Ÿ”น Watch for warning signs:
โ€ข Difficulty swallowing
โ€ข Drooling ๐Ÿคค
โ€ข Chest/neck pain
โ€ข Vomiting ๐Ÿคฎ

โŒ Do NOT try home remedies, induce vomiting, or give solid food
๐Ÿฅ Seek immediate medical attention โ€” early treatment prevents serious complications

๐ŸŒก๏ธ Ear Blockage During or After the Flu โ€” What You Should Know

Many patients experience blocked ears during or shortly after a flu illness. This is most often related to middle-ear problems, such as acute otitis media or middle ear effusion.

When the flu causes inflammation in the upper respiratory tract, the Eustachian tube (the canal connecting the middle ear to the back of the nose) may become swollen. This prevents normal ventilation of the middle ear, leading to fluid buildup or infection behind the eardrum.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Common symptoms include:
โ€ข Fullness or pressure in the ears
โ€ข Ear pain
โ€ข Muffled hearing
โ€ข Dizziness or imbalance

๐Ÿฉบ How We Manage Ear Blockage
1๏ธโƒฃ Conservative Measures

โ€ข Try swallowing, yawning, or sucking sweets to encourage the Eustachian tubes to open.
โ€ข Perform a gentle valsalva maneuver:
Take a deep breath โ†’ close your mouth โ†’ pinch your nose โ†’ try blowing out gently.
A soft โ€œpopโ€ usually means the pressure has equalised.

2๏ธโƒฃ Medications (when appropriate)

โ€ข Antibiotics โ€” if a bacterial infection is suspected
โ€ข Antihistamines
โ€ข Short-term nasal decongestants
โ€ข Steroid nasal sprays to reduce inflammation

3๏ธโƒฃ Surgical Options

For persistent fluid or recurrent infections:
โ€ข Myringotomy (small incision in the eardrum)
โ€ข With or without grommet (ventilation tube) insertion

๐Ÿ“Œ When to See an ENT Specialist

Seek early ENT consultation if symptoms are:
โ€ข Severe
โ€ข Lasting more than a few days
โ€ข Associated with intense pain or hearing loss

๐Ÿฉบ Throwback to last last Friday!
It was quite an eventful day with three foreign body cases back-to-back.
๐Ÿ”น First case involved an elderly lady who accidentally swallowed her denture, which became lodged in the esophagus.
๐Ÿ”น Two patients came in with fish bones stuck in the throat โ€” one an adult female and the other a child.

All foreign bodies were successfully removed, and everyone recovered well. ๐Ÿ™

โš ๏ธ A quick reminder:
If you ever feel something stuck in your throat after eating, donโ€™t force it down with rice or bread โ€” this can push it deeper and make removal more difficult. Instead, seek medical attention early.

Foreign body cases can happen to anyone, but with prompt care and proper management, outcomes are usually excellent.
