Why Are Children Prone to ENT Conditions?

Young children and toddlers have an increased vulnerability to ENT issues because of the smaller airways and developing organs. This leaves them more open to infections and other conditions.Furthermore, the ear, nose and throat are critical to a child’s learning & development, with sleep, listening and pronunciation being some of the key priorities for many children during their formative years.

When Should You Bring Your Child

To A Paediatric ENT Doctor?

Spotting an ENT condition in a child is much harder than it is in an adult – simply because children may not be able to accurately express their symptoms as well as adults. These are some common symptoms that children display when they are suffering from ENT conditions:

Unexplained fever
Irritability
Difference in behaviour
Difficulty in learning
Delayed speech development
Frequent colds or runny nose

Constant sniffling in the day
Disturbed, restless sleep
Speech or language delay
Attention deficit
Speech impediments
Tugging at the ear

If your child is exhibiting any of the above behaviours, it is recommended that a consultation with a ENT specialist be scheduled for an in-depth investigation.
