Patient's question:
The child was born a few days ago and recently doesn't know why they keep scratching their ears. Is it normal for a child over two years old to snore while sleeping?Doctor's answer:
There are many common causes that can lead to a child snoring, such as obesity, chronic tonsillitis, adenoiditis, etc. If the snoring is severe, it can cause hypoxia in the body and affect the child's growth and development. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for further examination to determine the cause of snoring. If it is chronic tonsillitis or adenoiditis, anti-inflammatory treatment can be given. If it is ineffective, surgical treatment can be considered.
