Paediatric ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on diagnosing and treating ENT conditions in children—from newborns to teenagers. Unlike adults, children have smaller and more delicate anatomical structures, as well as developing immune and communication systems, making their ENT care unique.
Paediatric ENT specialists are trained to manage a wide range of issues, including frequent ear infections, hearing loss, nasal obstruction, tonsil and adenoid problems, snoring, voice disorders, and congenital anomalies affecting the head and neck. These conditions, if not addressed early, can impact a child’s hearing, speech, breathing, sleep, and overall development.
Treatment may involve medical therapy, minor procedures, or surgeries such as grommet insertion or tonsillectomy, always tailored to the child’s age and needs. With a compassionate and child-friendly approach, paediatric ENT care ensures healthy growth and better quality of life for young patients.
