Struggling with loud snoring or waking up exhausted, even after a full night of sleep?

It could be more than just snoring. It could be sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea happens when your airway repeatedly closes while you sleep, causing your breathing to pause.

Common signs include:
• Loud, frequent snoring
• Gasping or choking during sleep
• Waking up with headaches or a dry mouth
• Feeling tired, foggy, or irritable during the day
• Trouble focusing or staying awake, especially while driving

Untreated sleep apnea can affect your heart, blood pressure, mood, and overall quality of life. The good news is that it is highly treatable.

If these symptoms sound familiar, do not ignore them. Contact ENT & Allergy, Inc today to schedule an evaluation and take the first step toward better sleep and better health.

Feeling Under the Weather? Let’s Talk About the Flu! 🌡️🦠

Flu season is upon us, and while most people think of it as a respiratory illness, did you know the flu can significantly affect your ears, nose, and throat too? Here’s how the flu impacts your ENT health and what you can do about it:

👂 Ears
Flu-related congestion can cause blocked Eustachian tubes, leading to pressure buildup, muffled hearing, or even painful ear infections. If you feel ear pain that persists after flu symptoms subside, it’s a good idea to have it checked out!

👃 Nose
Runny nose, nasal congestion, and sinus pressure are hallmark symptoms of the flu. The flu virus inflames nasal passages, making it harder to breathe. Pro tip: Use a saline spray or humidifier to keep your nasal passages moist and comfortable.

🗣️ Throat
A scratchy, sore throat is often one of the first signs of the flu. This happens due to postnasal drip and throat inflammation. Drinking warm fluids and using throat lozenges can provide relief, but if your throat pain is severe, it could indicate a secondary infection like strep.

When to See a Specialist:
Most flu symptoms resolve on their own, but consult an ENT specialist if you experience:

• Persistent sinus pain or pressure.
• Severe ear pain or drainage.
• Difficulty swallowing or breathing.
• Lingering hoarseness or throat discomfort.

Stay Protected!
✅ Get your flu vaccine.
✅ Wash your hands frequently.
✅ Avoid touching your face.
✅ Stay home if you’re sick to prevent spreading the virus.

Your ENT health is our priority. Don’t let the flu take over your season—stay vigilant and healthy! If you’re struggling with lingering symptoms, we’re here to help. 💙

Headache got you guessing…. Is it your sinuses or a migraine? Let’s break it down a bit. They can feel similar, but a few clues point in different directions:

More likely MIGRAINE:
• Throbbing or pulsing pain (often one-sided)
• Nausea and/or vomiting
• Sensitivity to light, sound, or smells
• Worsens with routine activity
• May have nasal stuffiness or watery eyes but no fever or thick discharge

More likely SINUS (acute sinusitis):
• Facial pressure/fullness over cheeks/forehead/around eyes
• Pain worse when bending forward
• Thick yellow/green nasal discharge, decreased smell
• Fever and dental pain can occur
• Usually after a cold and lasts >10 days or “gets better then worse” again

See a specialist if you experience…
• Headache with high fever, stiff neck, confusion, “worst headache,” new neuro symptoms, or after head injury—seek urgent care.
• Congestion/pressure >10 days, recurrent “sinus” pain, or smell loss—book with our ENT team.

🍂 Mold spores – grow on damp leaves, compost, and soil after rain.
🏠 Dust mites – thrive indoors once the heat comes on.
🐾 Pet dander – rises when windows close and pets spend more time inside.

If you’re still sniffling or congested, you don’t have to wait for spring to feel better. Our team at ENT & Allergy, Inc. offers allergy testing and treatment right here in Rhode Island.

Flying soon? Protect your ears and prevent barotrauma.

Ear barotrauma is a pressure injury that occurs when outside air pressure changes faster than your middle ear can equalize. If the Eustachian tube doesn’t open, pressure pushes or pulls on the eardrum, causing pain and fullness. The eardrum may stretch, fluid can build up, and rarely the eardrum can tear. Inner-ear injury is uncommon but serious.

Common triggers:
• Airplane takeoff and descent
• Scuba diving and freediving
• Mountain driving, fast elevators, hyperbaric therapy

Symptoms:
• Sharp pain, fullness, muffled hearing, popping
• Ringing (tinnitus)
• Severe: dizziness/vertigo, ear bleeding, sudden hearing loss

Risk factors:
• Colds, allergies, sinusitis, nasal congestion
• Young children (immature Eustachian tubes)
• Recent ear surgery or chronic ear problems
• Smoking or reflux (can inflame the tube)

Prevention basics:
• Equalize early and often: swallow, yawn, chew gum
• Gentle Valsalva: pinch nose, closed mouth, blow lightly 1–2 s
• Filtered earplugs (e.g., EarPlanes) for flights
• Saline rinses; consider a short-term nasal decongestant spray before takeoff/landing if appropriate

When to see a specialist:
‼️ Severe pain, vertigo, bleeding, or symptoms lasting >24–48 hours
‼️ Sudden hearing loss at any time

October is Audiology Awareness Month and National Protect Your Hearing Month!

Healthy hearing starts in the inner ear. Tiny hair cells convert sound into signals for the brain. Noise and aging can damage these cells. Prevention matters.

Notice the signs early:
• Speech sounds muffled•
• Asking people to repeat themselves
• Ringing or buzzing in your ears
• The TV volume creeps up
• Crowded rooms feel exhausting
• Ear pain or dizziness appear.

Protect your ears, daily!

✅ Use earplugs at concerts, games, and during yard or shop work.

✅ Follow the 60/60 rule for headphones.

✅ Take quiet breaks after loud sound.

✅ Keep blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol controlled.
