Quick answers to common questions about Dr. Krishna Murthy N
Chronic sinusitis may be treated with saline nasal irrigation, nasal corticosteroid sprays, allergy management and other appropriate medications. Patients with persistent symptoms or nasal polyps may require Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) or balloon sinuplasty after specialist evaluation.
Tympanoplasty may be recommended when an eardrum perforation does not heal naturally or causes recurrent infections, ear discharge or hearing difficulties. Surgery aims to repair the eardrum and may improve hearing in selected patients.
Hearing loss treatment depends on whether the problem affects the outer, middle or inner ear. Options may include medication, removal of earwax, hearing aids, tympanoplasty, stapedectomy or cochlear implantation for suitable patients. Audiometry and other hearing tests help guide treatment.
Septoplasty corrects a deviated nasal septum that obstructs airflow, while balloon sinuplasty widens selected sinus drainage openings. These procedures treat different underlying conditions and are recommended according to nasal examination, symptoms and imaging findings.
Tonsillectomy may be considered for patients with frequent, severe or complicated tonsillitis or certain breathing problems. The decision depends on the frequency and severity of infections, associated symptoms and the expected benefits and risks of surgery.
