My Child Snores—Should I Be Worried?

Occasional snoring is common in children. But loud, frequent snoring with gasping, choking, or pauses in breathing may signal sleep apnea, often caused by enlarged tonsils or adenoids.

It’s best to consult an ENT specialist for evaluation and possible sleep study.

What Is a Tongue-Tie (Ankyloglossia)?

Tongue-tie occurs when the tissue connecting the tongue to the mouth (lingual frenulum) is too short or tight, limiting movement.

It may affect:
🔸 Breastfeeding
🔸 Speech
🔸 Oral hygiene

Treatment may involve a simple procedure called frenotomy, if needed.

What Is Adenoid Hypertrophy and Does It Need Surgery?

Adenoid hypertrophy is the enlargement of adenoid tissue at the back of the nose. It can cause:
🔹 Nasal congestion
🔹 Snoring
🔹 Mouth breathing
🔹 Recurrent ear infections

If symptoms are severe or persistent, adenoidectomy may be recommended.

Why Does My Child Keep Getting Ear Infections?

Children have smaller and more horizontal Eustachian tubes, making it easier for fluid and bacteria to get trapped. This can lead to recurrent otitis media (middle ear infection), especially after colds or allergies.

Frequent infections may require ENT evaluation, possible hearing tests, or ear tube placement.

What Is Ear Barotrauma and How Can I Prevent It When Flying?

Ear barotrauma happens when pressure changes—like during takeoff or landing—damage the eardrum or middle ear.

Prevention Tips:
✅ Yawn, swallow, or chew gum during ascent/descent
✅ If with nasal congestion, you may use prescribed intranasal or oral decongestants.
✅ Try earplugs designed for flying

If you feel severe pain or hearing loss after a flight, consult your ENT.

Can Ear Infections Cause Permanent Hearing Loss?

Yes—untreated or repeated ear infections, especially in children, can lead to:
⚠️ Damage to the eardrum
⚠️ Middle ear complications
⚠️ Permanent hearing loss in some cases

Prompt treatment helps prevent long-term damage. Don’t ignore recurring ear pain or discharge.

Can Allergies Cause Ear Problems? Yes!

Seasonal or nasal allergies can affect your ears by:
🔹 Blocking the Eustachian tube
🔹 Causing fluid buildup
🔹 Leading to pressure, pain, or temporary hearing loss

Allergic rhinitis can make your ears feel full or plugged.

Treating your allergies may help relieve ear symptoms—see your ENT for advice!

Dizziness vs. Vertigo: What’s the Difference?

Many confuse dizziness and vertigo, but they’re not the same:

🔸 Dizziness: Feeling lightheaded, faint, or unsteady
🔸 Vertigo: A false sense that you or your surroundings are spinning

⚠️ Both can have different causes—from inner ear problems to low blood pressure or anxiety.

If symptoms persist, consult your ENT for proper evaluation.
