Patient's question:
The baby has had a stuffy nose for a year. Three months ago, a nasal endoscopy revealed a 5/4 blockage. Medications were taken, but last week's examination showed the same level of blockage plus sinusitis. Originally scheduled for surgery tomorrow, the baby suddenly developed a fever of 38.5°C in the afternoon. Hello, can the surgery still be performed?Doctor's answer:
The blockage in the child is indeed quite severe. If the medication does not work, surgery will be necessary, and it must be ensured that it will not have any adverse effects on the child's growth and development. Sudden fever is generally not an indication for surgery; it is necessary to wait until the fever subsides before proceeding. Adenoid hypertrophy in children has a significant impact on them. Once a mother notices the symptoms in her child, she should immediately take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis. At the same time, she should pay close attention to the child's diet. It is recommended to maintain a balanced diet to ensure the child's nutritional needs are met. It is hoped that the child can receive symptomatic treatment to aid in recovery!
