How to do postoperative care after adenoid hypertrophy surgery

Patient's question:

Daughter is four years old, adenoid hypertrophy occupies two-thirds of the posterior nasal passage. The doctor recommends surgical treatment. I would like to ask how to care for the adenoid hypertrophy after surgery?

Doctor's answer:

As age increases, the adenoid will gradually atrophy, and the condition may be alleviated or symptoms may completely disappear. If medical treatment, such as conservative therapy, is ineffective, the adenoid should be surgically removed as early as possible.
Guidelines:
Pay attention to nutrition, prevent colds, enhance the body's immunity, and actively treat the underlying disease. Avoid long-term symptoms such as colds, runny nose, nasal congestion, coughing, rubbing the nose, rubbing the eyes, and sneezing as much as possible.
