Our team of ENT specialists is committed to providing effective treatments to alleviate the symptoms of ETD using the latest medical techniques and personalized care plans.

What is Eustachian Tube Dysfunction?

Eustachian Tube Dysfunction occurs when the Eustachian tube, which connects the middle ear to the back of the nose, fails to open and close properly. This can lead to pressure, pain, hearing loss, and a feeling of fullness in the ears.

Our Treatment Approach

We offer a comprehensive range of treatments tailored to the specific needs of each patient, including:

• Medications: Nasal decongestants, antihistamines, and nasal corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and congestion.
• Balloon Eustachian Tuboplasty: A minimally invasive procedure where a small balloon is inserted into the Eustachian tube and inflated to widen the tube and improve airflow.
• Ventilation Tubes: In cases where non-invasive treatments are not effective, the insertion of small tubes into the ear drum may be recommended to facilitate proper air flow and relieve pressure.
