Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Hello, under normal circumstances, young children also often make mild snoring sounds while sleeping. However, if loud snoring occurs continuously, it is abnormal and should be considered a symptom of a condition, the most common of which is adenoid hypertrophy. Adenoids develop rapidly during early childhood and gradually shrink during puberty. Therefore, adenoid hypertrophy is a condition specific to early childhood. Normal-sized adenoids have no impact on children, but if the adenoids are overly enlarged, they can affect their physical and mental health. In general, surgical removal can be performed.
