Patient's question:
Is it adenoid hypertrophy? What should I do? Sleep with nasal congestion, daytime and sleeping with holding is okay, no snot, often making a humming sound when breathing through the noseDoctor's answer:
Adenoid hypertrophy is usually caused by a child's cold or cough not healing properly. Long-term nasal congestion can lead to facial deformation, affect intelligence, and cause middle ear infections. It should be treated with surgery in a timely manner. 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 managed by waiting. By the time the child is around 10 years old, it may shrink on its own.
