Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key ENT red flags?
Sudden sensorineural hearing loss, hoarseness lasting more than three weeks in a smoker, unilateral nasal obstruction or epistaxis, a persistent neck lump, and stridor or drooling suggesting airway compromise.
How should I structure a dizziness history?
Pin down what the patient means by dizzy, then the timing and triggers rather than the description alone. Duration of episodes, positional triggers, and associated hearing loss or tinnitus separate BPPV, Meniere's, and vestibular neuritis.
