Otorhinolaryngology

Otorhinolaryngology is the medical specialty that studies, diagnoses, treats, and manages diseases, abnormalities, and other health problems affecting the ears, nose, and throat, as well as the head and neck, mouth, sinuses, and voice box (larynx). Doctors who concentrate in this field include otolaryngologists, otorhinologists, ENT (ear, nose and throat) surgeons, and head and neck surgeons. Otorhinolaryngologists diagnose and treat disorders/diseases of the ear, nose, throat, base of the skull, head, and neck. Functional diseases impact the senses and activities of eating, drinking, speaking, breathing, swallowing, and hearing. Furthermore, ENT surgery encompasses the surgical therapy and reconstruction of head and neck malignancies and benign tumours, as well as reconstructive surgery of the face and neck (facial plastic surgery).
