About Ear, Nose and Throat

We offer a full spectrum of children’s ENT therapies and procedures to treat these conditions, including airway reconstruction, tracheotomy, ear tube insertions, sinus surgery, cochlear implants and bone conduction implants. We work as a team with other pediatric specialists such as audiologists and speech-language pathologists to ensure the best possible outcome.

We know how to examine and treat children in a way that makes them relaxed and cooperative, and we do our best to minimize pain, discomfort and anxiety. We also understand the physical and emotional needs of children and encourage active participation of parents in all aspects of care.

Tonsillectomies are performed by an otolaryngologist/ ear, nose & throat doctor. You can find more information on the ENT department page.

Our ear, nose and throat (ENT) providers perform frenectomies as an outpatient procedure. Here’s a link to the ENT department page with an appointment phone number. https://www.akronchildrens.org/departments/ENT-Center.html

What do I do if my child has a nosebleed?

  • Gently blow out the mucus and unstable clot through the nose.
  • Pinch the soft part of the nose below the bony part with your thumb and finger or nose clips and hold for 10 minutes.
  • Set a timer and don’t check until the timer is finished.
  • Consider applying an ice pack to the bridge of the nose while continuing to pinch the nose.

How can I prevent a nosebleed?

  • Place a humidifier in the child’s bedroom. 
  • Spray nasal saline into each nostril twice a day.
  • Place petroleum jelly/Vaseline/Saline Gel into both nostrils, making sure to cover the nasal septa.
  • Avoid nose picking.
  • Keep fingernails short to avoid accidentally scratching the inside of the nose.
