Akanabe ENT Clinic
About
Akanabe Clinic, specializing in otorhinolaryngology and pediatrics, is located in Imaike-cho, Anjo City, Aichi Prefecture, and provides a treatment environment that can accommodate English speakers. Acute otitis media is common among children up to about 6 years old; due to the shape of the Eustachian tube, nasal discharge easily enters the middle ear, and treatment is performed with antibiotics and ENT procedures. Incision of the eardrum may be necessary in some cases, but the hole in the eardrum closes within a few days. Otitis media with effusion is a condition where fluid accumulates in the middle ear, affecting hearing; appropriate treatment is required, taking into account its potential impact on language development and learning abilities in childhood. Allergic rhinitis presents diverse symptoms beyond the three major symptoms, including Japanese cedar pollen, causing itching in the eyes and throat, with causes ranging from pollen to dust mites and house dust. The clinic also offers sublingual immunotherapy using Cédarcure sublingual tablets. Sinusitis involves pus accumulation following upper respiratory tract inflammation, presenting with nasal congestion and headaches, and in young children can manifest as nighttime cough and phlegm. Clinic hours are Monday through Friday from 9:00 to 12:00 and 15:30 to 18:30, with the clinic closed on Thursdays, Sundays and public holidays, Saturday afternoons, and during the year-end and New Year period. The clinic is equipped with parking and barrier-free facilities, allowing patients to visit regardless of their mode of transportation.
