Patient's question:
The child has recovered from a cold and noticed two small white spots on the tonsils. While taking a nap, they breathed with their mouth open and felt nasal congestion. After a thorough examination at the ear, nose, and throat clinic, it was diagnosed as adenoid hypertrophy and rhinitis. The child was prescribed Cefixime combined with Azithromycin, Dexamethasone Oral Solution, and Bromhexine Oral Solution, but the condition did not improve. There are still white spots.Doctor's answer:
This situation still involves the possibility of transmission. Taking medication may not be fully effective, so it might be necessary to switch to a different drug. I recommend you visit the internal medicine department of a hospital for further detailed and thorough examination. A bacterial culture of the secretions can be conducted, followed by targeted medication and treatment. Adenoid hypertrophy in children can pose significant harm, so it is advisable for parents to take their child to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is important to provide the child with sufficient care and attention, pay close attention to their dietary issues, and hope that the child can recover as soon as possible!
