Patient's question:
Boy baby, he is 5 years old this year. He is always close to coughing, and he also has a lot of phlegm. The child says his throat is uncomfortable. Please ask: What are the symptoms of tonsillar hypertrophy?Doctor's answer:
The main symptoms of tonsillar hypertrophy are a foreign body sensation in the throat, dryness and soreness in the throat, and in some children, changes in voice. During naps, children with tonsillar hypertrophy often snore and may also experience symptoms of breathing difficulties. If tonsillar hypertrophy is not treated promptly, it may lead to chronic hypoxia in children, affecting their brain development and growth. Therefore, if discovered, surgical treatment should be administered as early as possible. For parents, it is important to help their children receive timely treatment for the disease. Additionally, the daily diet of the child should be balanced, avoiding excessive supplementation or malnutrition.
