🌿 Sneezing, Itching, and Congestion? It Might Be Seasonal Allergies! 🤧

If you’re constantly battling sneezing, itchy eyes, and congestion when the seasons change, you’re not alone! Seasonal allergies (also known as hay fever) affect millions and are triggered by pollen, mold, and other environmental allergens.

How Can Immunotherapy Injections Help? 💉

At Excel ENT, we offer allergy immunotherapy—a treatment designed to reduce your body’s sensitivity to allergens over time. Here’s how it works:

✅ Gradual Exposure – Small doses of allergens are introduced through injections, helping your immune system build tolerance.
✅ Long-Term Relief – Unlike antihistamines, which only mask symptoms, immunotherapy addresses the root cause of allergies.
✅ Reduced Dependence on Medications – Many patients experience fewer symptoms and need less allergy medication.

Ready to breathe easier this allergy season? Excel ENT is here to help! Contact us today to learn more about allergy testing and immunotherapy options. 📞 330-837-3559🌿

Good morning from Excel ENT!
Today’s weather in Massillon brings light snow and cold temps, with a high of 36°F and a low of 24°F. While this chilly weather may be unwelcome, it’s actually offering a small break for allergy sufferers.

Allergy Update:
• Tree Pollen: Moderate
Tree pollen is the primary allergen in the air today. Although snow and cold can reduce airborne pollen, those with sensitivities may still feel symptoms.

Tips from Excel ENT:
• Limit outdoor activities, especially in the morning when pollen counts are typically higher.
• Keep windows closed and use HEPA filters indoors.
• Rinse off and change clothes after being outdoors to avoid bringing allergens inside.
• Don’t forget your allergy medications or consult us about treatment options!

Stay warm and breathe easy. For personalized allergy care, contact Excel ENT at 330-837-3559.

👂 What is a Myringotomy? 👂

At Excel ENT, we’re dedicated to helping you and your family breathe, hear, and feel better! One common procedure we perform is a myringotomy—but what exactly is it, and why is it sometimes necessary?

A myringotomy is a minor surgical procedure where a small incision is made in the eardrum to drain fluid buildup from the middle ear. In many cases, a tiny tube is placed to help prevent future fluid accumulation.

Why Might You Need a Myringotomy?

🔹 Chronic Ear Infections – Frequent ear infections can lead to hearing loss or speech delays, especially in children.
🔹 Fluid Buildup (Otitis Media with Effusion) – If fluid remains in the ear for too long, it can cause discomfort, pressure, and even temporary hearing loss.
🔹 Eustachian Tube Dysfunction – When these tubes don’t drain properly, it can result in persistent ear issues.
🔹 Hearing or Balance Problems – Prolonged fluid buildup can affect both hearing and balance, impacting daily life.

This quick, outpatient procedure can provide long-term relief from ear pain, infections, and hearing difficulties—helping both children and adults get back to feeling their best!

If you or your child experience frequent ear infections or hearing issues, Excel ENT is here to help! Call us today to schedule a consultation. 330-837-3559 📞👂

The pollen counts are the hightest between the hours 5am and 10am, so limiting your outdoor exposure during those times can be helpful in controlling your allergy symptoms.
