Question

A three-year-old child snores during sleep, and upon examination, it is found to have adenoid hypertrophy. I want to ask if adenoid hypertrophy is a severe condition?

Answer

Adenoid hypertrophy and tonsillar hypertrophy are often treated with antibiotics. For recurrent cases, surgical removal is a common method. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment focuses on enhancing the patient’s immune system, promoting shrinkage of the hypertrophied area, preserving the adenoids and tonsils while achieving therapeutic effects.
