Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a speech pathologist with a new client, 3 1/2 year old female. She has a hypernasal voice on some sounds, but not all. A brief oral mech revealed a V shaped uvula that deviates to her Left when producing ah. I palpated her palate and felt her notch in the center, but I am not formally trained in feeling for fistulas or submucosal clefts. Her pediatrician has seen her and done a visual exam of her mouth - no enlarged tonsils or adnoids were seen (nor did I see that). I will refer to an ENT, but thought I get some info from an expert first. Any thoughts?
Hyper nasal it can be a symptom of fistula and cleft..but they will have regurgitation of feeds associated with it sir..so kindly get the end surgeon examine this child ..if no structural abnormality is there then nothing to worry sir..
