Patient's question:
The child is 11 years old. The child has a heavy nasal voice, and sometimes when calling for dad or mom, it's a bit hard to distinguish. The child's breathing sound is quite heavy, and there is some hypertrophy of the adenoid. What is the specific cause?Doctor's answer:
Based on the description of your child's condition, he may have adenoid hypertrophy, in addition to rhinitis. The heavy nasal sound is caused by rhinitis, while the heavy breathing sound is due to adenoid hypertrophy. If there is snoring during deep sleep, hearing loss, and recurrent otitis media, then adenoidectomy should be considered. I hope what I said helps you. The above is advice on the question "My child is 11 years old, and his nasal sound is quite heavy," and I hope it is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
