Patient's question:
How to treat hypertrophic turbinates and hypertrophic adenoid?Doctor's answer:
Adenoid hypertrophy is generally caused by a child's cold or cough not healing properly. Long-term nasal congestion can lead to facial deformation, affect intelligence, and result in otitis media. It is recommended to have surgery promptly. Plasma treatment can also be adopted for adenoid hypertrophy. If a child contracts this condition after the age of four or five and the situation is not too severe, it can be persisted with. After the age of ten or so, it may shrink on its own.
