Question 1

I have both aesthetic and breathing issues with my nose. Which procedure?

Accepted Answer

Both external appearance and septal deviation can be corrected in the same session — septorhinoplasty. General anaesthesia, 2.5-3.5 hours, 1 night hospital. Tele-consult for detailed assessment.

Question 2

I have a palpable lump in my neck. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

Neck masses can be thyroid nodules, lymph nodes, or salivary gland tumors. Neck ultrasound + ENT exam; FNAB if needed. Early evaluation important.

Question 3

Snoring and daytime sleepiness. Which treatment?

Accepted Answer

Suspected sleep apnea — polysomnography needed. If nasal obstruction co-exists, septoplasty + turbinate RF. Moderate-severe apnea: CPAP or surgery.

Question 4

Persistent postnasal drip + headache. Which procedure?

Accepted Answer

Likely chronic sinusitis. First medical therapy (intranasal steroid + saline irrigation + antibiotics if needed). If unresponsive, FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery).
