Features: The common diseases in otolaryngology are primarily upper respiratory tract disorders. Due to their unique anatomical location, the ear, nose, and throat (ENT) regions are easily affected by external factors, leading to functional or organic lesions, such as common conditions like otitis media, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, rhinitis, sinusitis, laryngitis, and deafness. If these diseases are not properly prevented or treated, they not only impair quality of life but may also result in adverse consequences, even endangering life. The authors adhere to the principles of prevention before illness and early treatment, aiming to help readers understand and master daily preventive knowledge for common ENT diseases through this book. They also introduce basic and practical treatment methods and management measures from both traditional Chinese and Western medical perspectives, with the goal of enhancing the public's knowledge of prevention and treatment for such diseases, enabling them to grasp the correct methods and achieve the purpose of prevention. For ENT professionals, this book can also serve as a frequently referenced reference material for daily work, offering certain value in terms of reference and practical use.
