What’s really going on with your tonsils, sinuses, and airway health?
In this episode of The Root of the Matter, Dr. Rachel Carver sits down with Dr. Jessica Lee, a double board-certified ENT and integrative medicine physician to connect the dots between ear, nose, and throat health, dental health, gut health, and chronic inflammation.
We dive deep into:
Common causes of swollen tonsils (in kids & adults)
When to treat vs. when to remove tonsils
Tonsil stones: what causes them & how to prevent them
Silent reflux and its surprising link to nasal congestion
The role of jaw development in airway health
Integrative approaches combining conventional & holistic care
Why sinus findings on dental CBCT scans matter (and when to take action)
