Symptoms and Diagnosis of Facial Trauma

Facial trauma symptoms vary depending on the type and severity of the injury. Common signs include:

• Pain
• Swelling
• Bruising
• Loss of function
• Changes in facial structure

To accurately diagnose the extent of the trauma, we use advanced radiographic techniques, including X-rays and CT scans. These imaging tools help us identify the location and severity of fractures and other injuries, allowing us to develop an effective treatment plan.

Our Treatment Approach

At Kanag ENT Superspeciality Hospital, we follow a comprehensive treatment approach that focuses on both immediate care and long-term recovery:

1. Ensuring Airway Safety: In severe cases, our first priority is to secure the airway to ensure the patient can breathe properly. This may involve clearing obstructions or surgical intervention.

2. Stabilization and Pain Management: We provide immediate relief through bandaging, suturing, ice application, antibiotics, and painkillers to manage symptoms and prevent complications.

3. Repositioning and Surgery: For bone fractures, we may need to manually reposition bones or perform surgical procedures to ensure proper alignment and healing. Our surgeons use minimally invasive techniques to reduce recovery time and improve outcomes.

4. Rehabilitation and Follow-Up: Post-treatment, we offer rehabilitation services to aid in recovery, including physical therapy and follow-up appointments to monitor healing and address any complications.
