A brief detail about ENT and how the ENT physicians are trained.
Introduction:
ENT: Ear Nose Throat
Here we are going to learn about ENT and how ENT physicians are trained
Otolaryngology Subspecialties
There are some different otolaryngology subspecialties that are as follows :
Otology/Audiology: Medical and surgical treatment of the ear and the nerve pathways linked with hearing and balance.
Pediatric Otolaryngology: Medical and surgical treatment of the ear, nose and throat in children.
Head and Neck Areas: Treatment of cancerous or noncancerous tumours in the head and neck.
Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery: Treatment of cosmetic or functional abnormalities of the face.
Rhinology: Treatment of the nose and sinuses.
Laryngology: Treatment of the throat, including the voice.
Allergy: Treatment of inhalant allergies.
Neurotology: Treatment of the neurological disorders of the ear.
How Are ENT Physicians Trained?
Otolaryngologists attend medical school for four years. They then receive specific instruction for at least five years. Ultimately, students must succeed on a test to get the American Board of Otolaryngology certification.
These are basically different types of physicians training :
Allergy: These physicians use medication or an immunology regimen of injections to treat environmental allergies (such as those brought on by pollen or pet dander). They can also assist you in determining whether you have a food allergy.
Reconstructive and facial surgery: These surgeons do aesthetic procedures, including facelifts and rhinoplasty. They also assist those whose appearances have been altered due to an accident or those who were born with defects that need to be corrected.
This type of expert can assist you if you have a tumour in your nose, sinuses, mouth, throat, voice box, or upper oesophagus.
Laryngology: These medical professionals deal with conditions that affect the larynx and vocal cords. They can also aid in the diagnosis and treatment of swallowing issues.
If you have an ear problem of any type, otologists and neurotologists can offer assistance. Infections, hearing loss, light-headedness, and ringing or buzzing in the ears are among the diseases they address (tinnitus).
Paediatric ENT: It’s possible that your youngster won’t be able to communicate their discomfort to their doctor. Paediatric ENTs are uniquely educated to treat children, and their exam rooms and equipment are made to make children feel at ease.
Ear infections, tonsillitis, allergies, and asthma are typical issues. Children with head and neck birth abnormalities are also treated by paediatric ENTs. They can also assist in determining whether your kid has a speech or language issue.
These medical professionals specialise in the nose and sinuses. They take care of growths that are uncommon, sinusitis, nasal bleeding, loss of smell, and stuffy nose.
Conclusion :
To conclude we can say that this article shows how ENT physicians are mainly trained and what is ENT about u will get the study about ENT from here.

Okay time for another 3am essay haha. So I've always loved Michael Burnham, but recently- while watching Disco S4 for the first time- she has truly ascended to blorbo status. Her arc is incredible, and so underrated! I think maybe the earlier seasons were a bit too focused on her connection to Spock and his family, so now that there's some distance from all that, I'm able to appreciate her diasporic experience as a child of two worlds even more? And seeing her consistently fall back on logic to reassure herself but also connecting with her crew specifically through her emotional intelligence and transparency, humanising herself but still striking the right notes of authority, all without ever raising her voice, is just- ahh it's so good. She's shaping up to being one of the coolest Star Trek captains!
After watching her big (Very Trekkian) speech in S4E7, I was tempted to go back and rewatch some of the pilot, just to see how far she'd come- and I was struck by this parallel (I haven't seen S1 since it aired in 2017, so please forgive me if I'm just pointing out the obvious hehe)
S1E1 (while trying to convince Captain Georgiou to fire at the Klingons):
BURNHAM: Captain, we have to fire on them. Hit that ship with everything we've got.
GEORGIOU: Absolutely not. They haven't powered weapons. They don't appear to pose an imminent threat.
BURNHAM: The Klingon threat is always imminent and inevitable. [...] 240 years ago, near H'Atoria, a Vulcan ship crossed into Klingon space. The Klingons attacked immediately. They destroyed the vessel. Vulcans don't make the same mistake twice. From then on, until formal relations were established, whenever the Vulcans crossed paths with Klingons, the Vulcans fired first. They said hello in a language the Klingons understood. Violence brought respect. Respect brought peace. Captain, we have to give the Klingons a Vulcan hello.
GEORGIOU: If their intention is to attack, balling up our fists won't dissuade them.
BURNHAM: It would be logical for you to take into account my success rate during our seven years together, and execute my plan without further challenge before we're dragged into war.
GEORGIOU: Starfleet doesn't fire first. That's all, Number One.
BURNHAM: We have to.
GEORGIOU: In my ready room.
GEORGIOU: Computer, privacy.
BURNHAM: Captain-
GEORGIOU: How dare you challenge me?
BURNHAM: I apologise for my insubordination.
GEORGIOU: Don't you realise that kind of talk can destabilise a crew?
BURNHAM: Don't underestimate them. I've overseen their exercises. They're ready for battle.
GEORGIOU: Battle is not a simulation. It's blood and screams and funerals. I taught you better than this. We don't start shooting on a hunch, and we don't take innocent lives. Period. I understand your history with the Klingons.
BURNHAM: My commitment to this course of action is not emotional. We target its neck, cut off its head-
GEORGIOU: You're still injured. You're not thinking clearly.
BURNHAM: Thousands of lives will be lost because of failure to act.
GEORGIOU: Whose lives? Victims of your imaginary war?
BURNHAM: And your life, Captain. Yours.
GEORGIOU: Stand down, Commander Burnham. That's an order.
BURNHAM: You're right. I may not be myself.
GEORGIOU: Easy, Michael.
(She knocks Georgiou out with a Vulcan neck-pinch.)
BURNHAM: ... I'm sorry.
So this is the big event that makes Michael an infamous mutineer and kicks off the whole show. But cut to four seasons (and a thousand years) later- and she's the captain of the ship, addressing what's left of the Federation on how she thinks they should respond to a mysterious new threat (that has completely destroyed her lover's whole planet.) Much like S1 Michael, he is angry and traumatised here, and very much pushing for a preemptive strike by using the same "countless lives will be saved" argument. And against his wishes and approval, here's what she chooses to say in her speech:
BURNHAM: Our experiences shape us. That's what makes this so difficult. [...] Before we head down a path that could lead to destruction on both sides, we need to reach first for understanding. For generations, the Federation has sought out new life, new civilisations, not to destroy but to connect, even in the face of uncertainty. And we are not all Federation members, but those ideals can still guide us. Especially now. We cannot let fear define us in this moment. We need to decide. Who do we want to be? Do we lash out blindly, no matter the risk? Or do we proceed thoughtfully? Work toward the future we want to live in? I believe that's who we are. We wouldn't be here otherwise.
BOOK (in front of everyone listening): We don't have the luxury of asking philosophical questions right now. What matters is the actions we take. Stopping this thing today.
BURNHAM: There are different points of view in this room, I know. But I hope that when a decision is reached, whatever it is, that we can hold together. That we can move forward as a united front.
BOOK: Some differences are too great. Sometimes you just have to accept the consequences of that.
So obviously Michael is now in Georgiou's place- and Book is playing her old part (and pretty well, lol- the episode literally ends with him stealing a shuttle behind her back and doing what he wants, just like Micheal did in S1!) But what I find most interesting is her echoing Georgiou's philosophy in other ways, too.
S4E10 (talking to the Federation President):
BURNHAM: Thank you for sharing the news.
RILLAK: We could have told them together. Why did you want me to do it?
BURNHAM: In times of crisis, people need to know that their leaders are not rattled by uncertainty or overwhelming odds. They need to know that there is a plan, that they'll be okay. You're their president. You can give them confidence, a sense of security. You're my president, too.
RILLAK: Oh... I'm grateful we had the chance to... connect before we approach Species Ten-C.
BURNHAM: If we can't communicate with each other, what chance do we have with them?
It really goes to show how far she's come, and how much she's benefitted from learning to accept all parts of herself- her Vulcan upbringing, her Federation ideals, her Human family, her Starfleet training, and her bonds with the crew- which are, of course, completely inextricable from her relationship with Georgiou. Instead of warring within her, these different aspects of her are now working together to make her the best possible version of herself- she's learnt both from her own mistakes, and others'. Basically- what a character!
