Question
The baby is 10 weeks old and seems to be off during this period, not very energetic. How should we deal with the issue of adenoid hypertrophy at the posterior pharyngeal wall?
Answer
It is recommended to treat the condition under a doctor’s guidance with cooling and heat-relieving Chinese medicine. Medications for treating nasal diseases can also be considered, or surgery may be an option. Maintaining a cheerful mood and getting plenty of rest, as well as eating a light diet and avoiding greasy, spicy foods, are beneficial for both the baby and the parent. If there are other discomforts, seek medical attention promptly.
