TARRYTOWN, N.Y., Feb. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- National health statistics show that pediatric ear, nose, and throat conditions remain among the primary reasons children visit a physician, with ear infections ranking as the most common reason for an appointment, according to The American Academy of Otolaryngology (Ear, Nose & Throat Doctors). Many conditions such as earaches, throat infections, sinus infections, breathing problems, foreign bodies in the ears and nose and recurrent nosebleeds require prompt diagnosis and treatment. February is Kids ENT Health Month, which is a yearly campaign held every February by the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, to offer parents and caregivers the latest information and resources about pediatric ear, nose, and throat disorders. The cold winter months make many pediatric ear, nose, and throat conditions more common.

February is a great time for parents to become familiar with the available treatment options and services ENT and Allergy Associates offers to combat the following common conditions:

February is Kids ENT Health Month, a yearly campaign held every February by the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery. This annual effort offers parents and caregivers the latest information and resources about pediatric ear, nose, and throat disorders.

Sinusitis is a disorder that is usually caused by an inflammation of the sinuses. It can often begin as a common cold or allergy, and then becomes an infection, which may present as sinusitis, tonsillitis or an ear infection.

There are two types of sinusitis: bacterial sinusitis and viral sinusitis.

A. Viral Sinusitis is more comparable to the common cold. Sufferers experience a headache and a runny or stuffy nose, which produces clear nasal mucus for a few days and then they begin to feel better.
B. Bacterial Sinusitis: Sufferers will experience a headache, stuffy or runny nose, and produce a greenish or yellow mucus from nose and sometimes pain in the teeth. Bacterial sinus infections tend to start after a viral cold after seven days or more and needs to be treated with antibiotics.

Tonsillitis is an infection of the tonsils, usually caused by a bacterial Strep infection or viral infection. Most tonsillitis does NOT need antibiotics, but Strep throat needs antibiotics. When a sore throat is bad a throat culture or in office Strep test can be done to see if antibiotics are needed. When tonsillitis becomes a recurrent problem, happening multiple times a year, a tonsillectomy, which is a surgical procedure may sometimes be requiring to remove the tonsils.

Ear infections are also very common this time of year. Infections that originate behind the ear drum are called Acute Otitis Media, or Middle Ear Infection. These are usually treated by the pediatrician with an antibiotic. In cases where the fluid does not go away and there is temporary hearing loss, or the infections continue to reoccur, surgery may be required. This typically involves placing small tubes in the eardrums to drain the fluid buildup and prevent infections. Outer ear infections happen in the ear canal and are also called swimmers ear. However, these types of infections can occur anytime of the year, even without swimming. These infections usually need a prescription ear drop. Sometimes, the ear needs be properly cleaned by an ENT doctor.

Nosebleeds can occur anytime of the year, but they very often appear when dry heat during the winter months affects the nasal passages. When a nosebleed occurs multiple times, the nose may need to be cauterized. This is a simple procedure, which can be done in the ENT's office.

Snoring or sleep apnea, which is pausing or struggling to breathe, can occur at any age. Enlarged tonsils in the throat, or adenoids in the back of the nose, often will get worse in the winter months with colds and flus. These conditions interfere with a child's sleep and can lead to daytime sleepiness. This can also lead to difficulties focusing in school and behavior problems. An ENT physician will check children who have snoring and sleep problems to see if the tonsils or adenoids need to be treated to improve the breathing.

ENT and Allergy Associates encourages all parents and caregivers to participate in Kids ENT month and learn more about ear, nose, and throat illnesses. Some of these disorders can lead to serious complications if not treated immediately.
