Question
Why does my child’s breathing sound so loud in the middle of the night, and why is the adenoid hypertrophy more severe at that time?
Answer
According to the description by the parents, the baby’s loud breathing sound during sleep may be due to adenoid hypertrophy. Although nasal spray containing nasal corticosteroids has been used, the effect is not obvious. It is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for inpatient surgery to remove the hypertrophied adenoids to avoid long-term difficulty breathing that could affect health. This is a thorough method of treating adenoid hypertrophy and is hoped to be helpful. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
