Question
A 3-year-old child has allergic rhinitis and snores while sleeping. The doctor recommended surgery. Is it necessary to undergo surgery? How can we alleviate the problem of snoring in a 3-year-old with allergic rhinitis during sleep?
Answer
In this case, the postoperative effect may be better, but considering the child’s young age, it is best to avoid surgery and pay more attention to keeping warm, try to reduce colds, and regularly observe the child’s condition. If the child experiences symptoms such as headaches or dizziness again, then surgery may need to be considered. It is recommended to have regular follow-ups. Additionally, for patients with allergic rhinitis during treatment, diet and care are also very important. Patients should pay attention to their diet, eat more light foods, and avoid unnecessary problems. I hope this answer is helpful to you. Thank you.
