Chronic Pharyngitis

Problems with tonsils and adenoids often present as frequent infections, chronic inflammation, or growths that block the airways. These conditions can lead to swallowing difficulties, snoring, breathing issues, and negatively impact overall health. Treatment can involve medication, or in severe cases, surgery for the removal of tonsils and adenoids (tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy).

Chronic pharyngitis is a condition involving long-term, recurrent inflammation of the pharynx (the back of the throat). Unlike acute pharyngitis, chronic pharyngitis is a prolonged illness with milder symptoms that tend to recur. Environmental factors, cigarette smoke, air pollution, chemical irritants, or certain allergies are among the common causes of chronic pharyngitis.

We came from Almaty on vacation, and my son started having ear pain from the very first day. They recommended drops and medications, but nothing helped. We stumbled across a doctor online and decided to take a chance. She turned out to be wonderful, and after the first dose of medication, my son felt better. Within a week, there was no trace of the infection. Special thanks to the translator for her care, understanding, and professionalism.

I was suffering from empty nose syndrome. For those who don't know, I should say that almost all of my nasal tissue was removed. It is a very bad disease. I went to 100 ENT doctors in Istanbul and they couldn't find a solution. Finally, I found Deniz Hoca, who is an expert in this field, and he took cartilage from my rib and performed the surgery and I got better. Thank you very much for everything.

I had a tonsillectomy performed by our doctor, Mustafa Deniz Yılmaz. The surgery went smoothly, and although it's said to be more difficult for adults, I recovered very quickly. I'm so glad I chose Mustafa.

First of all, I would like to thank my instructor Mustafa Deniz Yılmaz for his efforts. I had a nose surgery about 4 months ago. Like everyone else, I had the opportunity to research and compare the videos taken by many people who had this surgery and the perspectives of experts in their field on nose surgeries. I am very happy that I made the right decision and had surgery with my instructor Mustafa. I sincerely recommend my instructor Mustafa to everyone who wants to breathe both aesthetically and healthily and has problems.

I had a nose surgery in February. They never failed to show interest from the moment I entered the clinic until the last moment. No one even understands that I had plastic surgery. Mr. Deniz is one of the best in his field. I recommend it to everyone.

I had a nose surgery 3.5 months ago. The surgery and recovery process went great. There are a few things you should pay attention to after the surgery, they don't affect your quality of life too much. The doctor makes you feel very comfortable about that because it's not as complicated as you think. Other than that, I can breathe easily now, which is the most important thing. Also, Assistant Ayşegül Hanım gets back to you directly at any time of the day, no matter how long it has been since the surgery, if you have any questions. I'm very happy that I chose the right doctor.

I met Dr. Deniz upon the recommendation of another patient. He performed my ear surgery approximately 6 months ago with the diagnosis of Cholestatum. His care and follow-up of his patient both before and after the surgery for 6 months is commendable. I would also like to thank Dr. Deniz for his confidence in his patient and his friendly approach. I am in a much better position after the surgery, both in terms of hearing and risk of infection. I would like to thank Prof. Dr. Mustafa Deniz Yılmaz and his team.

I went to my dear teacher Deniz because of my breathing difficulties. He and his team were very cheerful and caring. My surgery was very successful and our doctor Deniz and his team were always caring throughout the process. We definitely recommend them, they are very knowledgeable, you will never regret it.

I had been experiencing a constant runny nose for a while. I decided to go to a private ENT specialist and I took a very good step. My doctor told me I had vasomotor rhinitis, which I had never heard of before. They had always given me allergy medication and sent me there. Mustafa Deniz made me feel very comfortable with the nasal wash he recommended. I had been using allergy medication unnecessarily for so long. You can go with peace of mind 😊.
