Patient's question:
The baby has adenoid hypertrophy, nasal congestion, cough, runny nose, headache, and snoring while sleeping. What is the cause, and what should be done?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you. Adenoid hypertrophy in babies is commonly caused by chronic rhinitis, tonsillitis, or repeated episodes of influenza. The baby may experience symptoms such as hearing loss, tinnitus, rhinitis, nasal congestion, runny nose, tracheitis, and more. In some cases, systemic symptoms like loss of appetite, vomiting, and indigestion may also occur. Your child's previous symptoms were caused by a viral infection, which was a common cold. With the use of antiviral medication, oral treatment is possible. Cough can be supplemented with medication. It's important to drink plenty of water and maintain a light diet, avoiding spicy and dry, hot foods. After the cold is treated, the snoring will disappear.
