Otology is a research of hearing, vestibular sensory systems and its related functions. It causes infections, deafness, dizziness and ear reconstruction. Otologists difficult to treat middle ear problems. Neurotology is related otology, neurosurgery and clinical neurology but to operate brain and nervous system related to hearing and balance. It affects neuromas, glomus tumors, facial nerve tumors and skull. Neurotologists perform cochlear implantation surgery. Vestibular diseases are Meniere’s disease and vestibular neuronitis.

Rhinology causes nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing and itching. Facial pressure decreased sense of smell or a greenish-yellow nasal drainage it leads to sinusitis. Acute rhinitis is caused by a viral illness, allergic or seasonal rhinitis and nonallergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis occurs when allergens in the air release of histamine. Histamine causes itching, swelling and fluid. Sinusology is a cold or flu virus spreading to the sinuses from the upper respiratory tract infection and few sinus cases are caused by bacteria. Help to relieve sinus pain and pressure are put a warm compress over the nose and forehead to help relieve sinus pressure, use a decongestant or saline nasal spray and breathe in steam from a bowl of hot water or shower.

Audiology treats people with communication disorders. Audiology and Speech Pathology deals with the detection, measurement, and research of hearing impairments. The treatment of disorders is hearing, speech language therapy and voice, and fluency disorders. Utilizing various testing procedures such as hearing tests, otoacoustic discharge estimations, videonystagmography, and electrophysiologic tests. Age-related hearing disorders are observed as presbycusis. Although age-related hearing disorder isn't a perilous problem, it can significantly affect personal happiness whenever left untreated.

Sleep Medicine & Snoring Disorders involves repetitive upper airway obstruction from collapse of the pharyngeal airway during sleep. This disorder can lead to apneas, hypopneas and respiratory problems. Obstructive Sleep Apnea procedures include uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, uvulopalatal flap surgery, tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, genioglossus advancement, maxillomandibular advancement, and other techniques. Snoring and Obstructive Sleep Apnea are free risk factors for problematic ventilation by mask. The endotracheal anesthesia is suitable for OSA surgery because of the threat of aspiration of blood from the surgical site.

Otorhinolaryngologists have been using minimally invasive surgery to diagnose and treat ENT problems. Head and neck diseases are well suited for minimally invasive surgery approaches. Many procedures can be performed through natural openings in ENT, which offer an entry way for the sophisticated, thin ENT instruments used. These types of procedures affect in lower tissue damage, a quick recovery, lower pain and lower scarring than surgeries performed through open lacerations. "Multimodality Treatment" combines a various of medical and surgical techniques to treat the patients. Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) is a less invasive surgery to remove head and neck cancers through the mouth.
