The COVID NINE
What experts are learning about coronavirus
“It’s not just a fever, dry cough, and shortness of breath. Further study of the general population and hospitalized patients indicates that six additional symptoms of COVID include chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, gastrointestinal issues/deliria, lesions on the feet known as “COVID toes,” and especially the loss of taste or smell,” says Dr. Alan Berger.

How to Use a Sinus Rinse
If you have a virus or are suffering an allergic reaction, sinuses can get clogged. A nasal rinse unclogs them by washing away mucus, allergens, and other debris preventing further bacteria growth. A sinus rinse is easy to use but learn to properly perform the rinse to avoid further bacteria growth and a sinus infection.
Common ENT Conditions &
Aesthetic, Non-Surgical
Procedures
Given our four season climate, our ENT doctors in Philadelphia continually treat conditions such as colds, allergies, stuffed noses, and ear infections. Our most common conditions and procedures, however, arise from complaints of sinusitis, deviated septum, and snoring and sleep apnea, as well as demands for non-surgical, facial skin rejuvenation.
Deviated Septum
Did you know that almost 80% of people have a deviation of their nasal septum due to genetics, injury or trauma? Symptoms can include breathing difficulty, sinus infections, facial pain, headaches, as well as snoring and sleep apnea.
Chronic Sinusitis
If you suffer from chronic sinusitis, you know how it feels. You experience facial pain and pressure, headaches, nasal congestion, and feel as if you constantly have a cold. You don’t breathe or sleep well. Your sense of smell and taste may be compromised; you may feel depressed or more tired than usual.
Snoring and Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a serious sleep disorder that occurs when the airway completely or partially collapses repeatedly during sleep causing interrupted breathing patterns. Untreated, it can lead to daytime fatigue, lack of concentration, snoring, high blood pressure, stroke, and heart failure. We are the ONLY ENT doctors in Philadelphia and the Delaware Valley offering triple board-certification in Otolaryngology, Sleep Apnea Surgery and Sleep Medicine.
Facial Rejuvenation
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation improves the look and feel of your face and neck with little to no downtime. Minimal bruising or swelling gets you back to your daily routine immediately. Performed in the comfort of our offices at the BergerHenry ENT Facial Rejuvenation Center.
