At Kirtikar SoundUP Hearing and
Speech Clinic, we realise that hearing and speech health may be closely related
to the overall health of your ears, nose and throat. We are experts in
audiology and speech pathology, but we understand the necessity of the holistic
approach. In any medical cases involving an ear, nose or throat issue that
needs to be medically identified or treated, we provide direct access to the
services of an expert ENT.
The Function of an ENT Specialist
An Otolaryngologist, or ENT
specialist, is a doctor who specialises in conditions and diseases of the ear,
nose, throat, and other parts of the head and neck. Their practice is to
diagnose and treat very diverse problems, including simple infections and
serious surgical issues. They play an essential role in medical care and
surgery that might be required to manage underlying diseases that impact
hearing or speech.
Easy Coordination of Your Health
Kirtikar SoundUP Hearing and Speech
clinic believes in an inclusive treatment process. If ENT consultation is
necessary, we will present the reasons clearly and can help circulate them with
well-regarded ENT specialists in Pune. We strive to provide you with a detailed
assessment and care surrounding every issue that involves your ear, nose, and
throat, as well as the best results for your hearing and communications.
When an ENT Consultation is Recommended
Even though our clinic offers a full
spectrum of audiological and speech-language care, we have unique cases when
consultation with an ENT is necessary. We can suggest an ENT referral when the
results of our first test are:
● Sudden Hearing Loss: Sudden hearing
loss occurs quickly, and a quick medical examination is needed to establish the
cause and chances of recovery.
● Ear Infections (Otitis Media): Ear
infections that last a long time or return are common in children. In many
cases, evaluation plus treatment by an ENT may be necessary.
● Ear Pain / Ear Discharge: Severe
pain in the ear or discharge from the ear should be examined by a physician.
● Tympanic Membrane Perforation: A
tympanic membrane hole needs an evaluation by an ENT on the possibility of
repair.
● Balance Disorders/Vertigo: Although
audiologists can test some balance disorders, others related to ENT disease can
be offered as a special diagnosis by an ENT.
● Structural Abnormalities: Any
evident marks on the outer ear or ear canal that can influence the hearing or
may require a medical evaluation.
● Chronic Sinus Problems or Nasal
Simulation: This may sometimes interfere with the Eustachian tubes' functions
and indirectly affect hearing functions.
● Change in the Voice: A long-term
hoarseness or alteration of the voice might necessitate one to seek the
services of an ENT to look at the throat.
● Cochlear Implants- To consider
cochlear implants, an ENT surgeon must undergo surgery and consider medical
candidacy.
