Ear infections can affect the outer or middle ear, causing pain, hearing loss, or discharge—and while most resolve on their own, recurring or severe cases may need ENT assessment or treatment such as grommets.
Recurrent tonsillitis involves repeated throat infections that may cause pain, fever, and swollen tonsils, and in some cases, may require surgical removal for lasting relief.
Surfer’s ear (ear exostosis) is a bony overgrowth in the ear canal caused by repeated cold water exposure, which can lead to water trapping, hearing loss, and recurrent infections.
