Patient's question:
I am a visitor from Harbin. My little nephew is now 4 years old and has been diagnosed with adenoid hypertrophy. The doctor has recommended surgical treatment, but the parents are concerned. They learned online that the famous Chinese physician Tan Yun has developed a Chinese herbal medicine to treat this condition, which is said to be very effective. I sincerely request the help of kind-hearted doctors to find the name of this medicine and where it can be purchased, or any non-surgical treatment methods related to it. Thank you very much!Doctor's answer:
Adenoid hypertrophy can block the posterior nasal passage, causing nasal congestion and leading to mouth breathing. Prolonged mouth breathing can easily trigger tonsillitis, degrade sleep quality, and result in facial bone development deformities. Timely treatment is necessary.Recommendations: Adenoid hypertrophy is often related to poor physical resistance. If the condition is not severe, it can be alleviated by strengthening the body and using oxymetazoline nasal drops to relieve nasal congestion, combined with traditional Chinese medicine for regulation. If the hypertrophy is severe, surgical treatment should be performed promptly.
