Nose & Sinus (Rhinology)
Rhinology is a specialized branch of ENT that focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions of the nose, sinuses, and related structures. These problems can range from simple nasal blockages and sinus infections to complex chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis, and structural abnormalities. Untreated nose and sinus conditions can significantly affect breathing, sleep, smell, and overall quality of life.
Dr. Arindam Das specializes in advanced medical and surgical rhinology, offering precise diagnosis and effective treatment using modern, minimally invasive techniques such as endoscopic sinus surgery. His goal is to relieve symptoms, restore normal function, and help patients achieve long-term relief.
