Happy Goiter Awareness Week, everyone! 🎗️ Before we delve into goiters, let's talk about the star of the week – your thyroid. This tiny gland at the front of your neck might not take up much space, but it's like the conductor of your body's orchestra, directing a symphony of activities that keep you feeling just right.

The thyroid’s job? It makes hormones that help control the speed of your metabolism - basically, how quickly your body uses energy. Think of it as the dial on your body's control panel that helps set the pace for how you use food for fuel, how warm you stay, and even how quickly your heart beats.

When your thyroid isn't humming along as it should, you might notice things feeling a bit 'off' in your body. That's where goiters come into play, but more on that soon. For now, let’s celebrate this amazing little gland and learn more about keeping it healthy!

📞 Questions about your thyroid? Reach out at (0917) 306 4771. At Bacolod Ear, Nose, Throat - Head and Neck Surgical Clinic, your health is our priority!

🌴🤧 Ready to tackle the cool January breeze with ease? If you're experiencing vasomotor rhinitis, knowing how to manage it in our tropical setting is key. This type of nonallergic rhinitis can trigger symptoms like nasal congestion, runny nose, and sneezing due to environmental changes, even in our warmer climate.

🌞 Layer Up Smartly: A light jacket can help your body adjust to the mild temperature shifts without overheating.

🏠 Air Moisture Matters: Consider a humidifier to combat dryness indoors, keeping your nasal passages moist and irritation-free.

💧 Stay Hydrated: Keep sipping on water throughout the day—your nasal passages will thank you for it.

🚫 Identify Triggers: Smoke, pollution, or strong fragrances can aggravate your symptoms. Whenever possible, choose cleaner, fresher air.

🌬️ Gentle Rinses: Saline nasal sprays or washes can be your best friend, helping to ease congestion and discomfort.

🧘‍♂️ Relax and Unwind: Simple stress-relief activities can make a big difference in managing your rhinitis symptoms.

🎉👀 Experiencing Throat Discomfort After the Holiday Season? Let's Talk Causes and Care! 👀🎉

Post-holiday throat discomfort is common, and it could be down to more than just one festive culprit. Here are several possible reasons why your throat might be asking for some rest.

🍲 Holiday Feasting: Indulgent meals and treats can lead to acid reflux, a common culprit for throat irritation. Spicy foods, chocolate, and even that extra serving of crispy and juicy lechon might be to blame!

🥂 Cheers to the New Year: Alcoholic beverages, especially when consumed in excess, can inflame your throat and contribute to acid reflux.

🎤 Karaoke Nights & Celebratory Shouts: Raising your voice to sing your heart out or to cheer "Happy New Year" can strain your vocal cords.

🚬 Smoky Environments: Smoke from fireworks, candles, or ci******es can lead to throat irritation.

🛑 Self-Care Tips:

Stay hydrated - water is your throat's best friend!
Limit acidic and spicy foods as you recover.
Refrain from alcohol and give your body time to reset.
Rest your voice - your vocal cords deserve a break too!

If these symptoms persist, it might be time to consult with a specialist. At Bacolod Eare, Nose, Throat - Head and Neck Surgical Clinic, we understand the intricacies of throat health. Don't let temporary discomfort turn into a lingering issue.

🔔👂 Are you hearing a ring that wasn't part of the New Year's bells? If you've noticed a ringing in your ears since the festive celebrations, you might be experiencing tinnitus.

Tinnitus often comes after being exposed to loud noises, like fireworks or music, and in many cases, it's temporary. Here are some steps you can take to help ease your symptoms:

▶️ Find a Quiet Space - Giving your ears a break from noise can help reduce the ringing sensation.
▶️ Limit Caffeine and Alcohol - These can make ringing worse for some people.
▶️ Manage Stress - Relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or meditation might help alleviate tinnitus.
▶️ Use White Noise - Soft background sounds can help distract you from the ringing.

If these symptoms persist, it's important to consult an ENT specialist to discuss your hearing health. The team at Bacolod Ear, Nose, Throat - Head and Neck Surgical Clinic is here to help you start the year with good health and better comfort. Don't let the ring linger into your New Year!

📞 Contact us to schedule a consultation and get personalized care for your hearing needs. We are located at PACE Bldg., First St. corner Lacson St., Bacolod City.

Happy New Year from all of us at AccuHear Hearing Center! 🎉 We hope you enjoyed the festivities and had a wonderful time welcoming 2023. But with all the celebration, it's important to discuss something many of us might be experiencing post-celebration: tinnitus or ringing in the ears.

The flash and sizzle of firecrackers can be thrilling, but they can also be a signal for your hearing health. Did you know that exposure to loud sounds such as firecrackers can cause temporary or even permanent tinnitus? 😧

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗧𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘂𝘀?
Tinnitus is often described as ringing, buzzing, hissing, or humming in the ears when no external sound is present. It can be a symptom of exposure to loud noise, and it can take the joy out of what should be a peaceful start to the New Year.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴?
The explosive force of firecrackers can generate sound levels anywhere from 150 to 175 decibels—well above the 85-decibel threshold that can cause hearing damage.

𝗧𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝗮𝗿 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲:
🗣️ Talk to Professionals: If you're experiencing tinnitus after the celebrations, it may be a good idea to get your hearing checked.
🛌 Rest Your Ears: Give your ears a break from any additional loud noise for the next few days.
📏 Monitor Volume Levels: Be mindful of the volume when using headphones to listen to music or watch TV.
If you're worried about your hearing or experiencing persistent tinnitus, we're here to help. Our audiologists can provide a comprehensive hearing examination and advice on protecting your ears from noise-induced hearing issues.

Remember, taking care of your hearing is a resolution that will resonate for years to come! 🎶 🤗
