Ear
When you’re healthy, you often don’t give your ears a second thought. But when faced with a health condition that affects your hearing, you suddenly find yourself looking for solutions. This is understandable; our ears are crucial in allowing us to communicate effectively, and are often our first line of defense against danger.
Nose
When the nose is not functioning properly, it can be difficult to breathe. There may also be nosebleeds or snoring. Problems with the nose are often a sign of another condition or disorder and should be diagnosed by a doctor.
Throat, Neck & Thyroid
Disorders of the neck and throat can cause pain and interfere with your ability to speak, swallow, and eat. Your metabolism may be affected, leading to weakness, muscle aches, irritability, weight gain or loss, and sensitivity to heat or cold. Tumors that form in this region can spread to other areas of the body.
Snoring & Sleep Apnea
Snoring is extremely common: 45 percent of American adults snore occasionally and 25 percent are habitual snorers. While many consider it a mere nuisance, keep in mind that snoring is a sleep disorder and can be the sign of a serious medical condition, such a sleep apnea.
