The abilities to hear, speak, and breathe are typically automatic functions we don’t even give a second thought until the delicate systems that are responsible for them become damaged by illness or injury. The structures that aid these functions are found in the ears, nose, throat, head and neck, and are best treated by a specialist known as an otolaryngologist, better known as an ENT, which is short for “ear, nose, and throat” doctor. These medical professionals are trained both in the medical and surgical treatment of multiple structures, including the ears, nose, sinuses, voice box, oral cavity, mouth, throat, and head and neck, all of which are interconnected systems.
