COMMON SYMPTOMS
What's Bothering You?
You don’t need to know the medical name for it. Start with how it feels, and we’ll take it from there.
My sinus infection won’t go away.
Sinus pressure, thick drainage, and headaches that keep coming back, or never really leave, are often signs of chronic or recurrent sinusitis. Antibiotics alone don’t always fix it, and there are other options.
Conditions: Chronic sinusitis · Recurrent sinus infections · Sinus headaches · Post-nasal drip · Nasal polyps · Loss of smell
Options may include: Medical management, in-office nasal endoscopy, in-office balloon sinus dilation, and endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) when needed.
I can’t breathe through my nose.
Constant stuffiness, one blocked side, or a nose that seems to collapse when you breathe in usually has a structural cause that can be treated.
Conditions: Deviated septum · Nasal congestion and obstruction · Enlarged turbinates · Nasal valve collapse · Chronic runny nose · Nosebleeds
Options may include: In-office VivAer®, LATERA® nasal implant, ClariFix®, and RhinAer®; turbinate reduction; septoplasty and functional rhinoplasty.
My ears ring, hurt, or feel plugged.
Hearing changes, ringing, pressure, or repeated infections are worth a closer look, especially if they’ve lasted more than a few weeks.
Conditions: Hearing loss · Tinnitus · Ear infections · Ear pain · Earwax impaction · Eustachian tube dysfunction · Perforated eardrum · Cholesteatoma · Swimmer’s ear
Options may include: In-office hearing tests and tympanometry, microscopic earwax removal, ear tubes, eustachian tube balloon dilation, ear injections, and eardrum repair.
I get dizzy, or the room spins.
Dizziness can be frightening, and it’s often connected to the inner ear. Many causes are very treatable once they’re identified.
Conditions: Vertigo · BPPV · Meniere’s disease · Imbalance · Inner ear disorders
Options may include: A thorough inner-ear evaluation, in-office repositioning maneuvers (such as the Epley maneuver), and intratympanic injections.
My voice, throat, or swallowing isn’t right.
Hoarseness, a sore throat that won’t quit, a feeling of something stuck, or trouble swallowing deserve an answer, not just another cough drop.
Conditions: Hoarseness · Vocal cord disorders · Chronic sore throat · Tonsillitis · Difficulty swallowing · Acid reflux and LPR · Chronic cough · Globus sensation
Options may include: In-office flexible laryngoscopy (a quick look at your voice box), operative laryngoscopy, tonsillectomy, and upper GI endoscopy with dilation.
I snore, or I stop breathing at night.
Loud snoring and poor sleep affect the whole household. If CPAP hasn’t worked for you, there may be other paths.
Conditions: Snoring · Obstructive sleep apnea · CPAP intolerance · Nasal blockage affecting sleep
Options may include: An airway evaluation from nose to throat, nasal procedures to improve airflow, and tonsil or throat surgery when appropriate.
I found a lump in my neck.
Most neck lumps turn out not to be serious, but any lump that lasts longer than two weeks should be checked. We can often get answers in the office.
Conditions: Neck masses · Thyroid nodules · Salivary gland problems and stones · Parotid masses · Skin lesions of the head and neck · Head and neck cancer
Options may include: In-office fine needle aspiration biopsy; thyroid and parathyroid surgery with nerve monitoring; parotid and salivary gland surgery; skin lesion removal.
My child keeps getting ear infections.
From ear infections to snoring to tongue tie, we care for kids with patience and a calm, kid-friendly approach, and we keep parents in the loop.
Conditions: Recurrent ear infections · Enlarged tonsils and adenoids · Pediatric sleep apnea · Tongue tie · Speech and hearing concerns · Chronic congestion
Options may include: Ear tubes, tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, tongue-tie release (frenotomy), and hearing testing.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon can I see an ENT doctor at CLEAR?
Same-week appointments are usually available. Many people in Macomb County wait weeks to see an ENT, so we keep openings for new patients. Call (586) 280-1000 and we’ll find the soonest time that works for you.
Do I need a referral to become a patient?
It depends on your insurance. Many PPO and Medicare plans don’t require a referral, while most HMO plans do. If you’re not sure, call our office and we’ll help you check before your visit.
What insurance do you accept?
We accept most insurance plans. Coverage varies by plan, so call (586) 280-1000 and our team will be happy to check your benefits before your appointment.
Does Clear Sinus, Ear, Nose and Throat see children?
Yes. Our practice treats children and adults. Common pediatric visits include recurrent ear infections, ear tubes, enlarged tonsils and adenoids, snoring and sleep apnea, tongue tie, and hearing concerns.
When should I see an ENT for sinus problems?
See an ENT if sinus symptoms last longer than 12 weeks, you have four or more sinus infections a year, or antibiotics and over-the-counter treatments haven’t helped. These can be signs of chronic or recurrent sinusitis, which often has longer-lasting treatment options.
What is balloon sinuplasty, and is it done in the office?
Balloon sinuplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that gently widens blocked sinus openings using a small balloon. At CLEAR, it’s performed in the office with local numbing medicine, and most people return to normal activities within a day or two.
Can an ENT help with snoring or sleep apnea?
Yes. An ENT can look for blockages in the nose and throat that contribute to snoring and sleep apnea. If CPAP hasn’t worked for you, treating a deviated septum, enlarged turbinates, or large tonsils may help.
Do you offer hearing tests?
Yes. We offer comprehensive hearing tests, including pure-tone and speech audiometry and tympanometry, right in the office. Results are reviewed with you at the same visit.
When should a lump in my neck be checked?
Any neck lump that lasts longer than two weeks should be checked by a doctor. Most are not serious, but an ENT can examine it and, if needed, perform a needle biopsy in the office.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Bring your insurance card, a photo ID, a list of your current medications, and any referral, imaging (like CT scans), or prior hearing test results.
Where is CLEAR Sinus ENT located?
