ENT Specialist Gdańsk — ENT consultations for adults and children
Diseases of the ears, nose, throat, and larynx. Upper airway endoscopy.
At ProfessMed, the ENT specialist sees adults and children with ear, nose, sinus, throat and larynx complaints. An endoscopic examination of the nose and throat and earwax removal are available during the visit.
Otolaryngology (otorhinolaryngology) is a field of medicine dealing with diseases of the ears, nose, paranasal sinuses, throat and larynx. An ENT specialist diagnoses these conditions, provides pharmacological treatment, performs minor procedures and — when necessary — assesses eligibility for surgical treatment.
An endoscopic examination allows a detailed view of the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, throat and larynx using a thin endoscope. It is helpful, among other things, in chronic runny nose and nasal obstruction, snoring, persistent hoarseness or suspected enlarged adenoids in a child.
Another common reason for a visit is a feeling of a blocked ear and reduced hearing caused by an earwax plug. The ENT specialist examines the ear and removes the earwax — most often by irrigation.
