Question
How to prevent the worsening of adenoid hypertrophy?
Answer
Adenoid hypertrophy, also known as adenoidal hyperplasia, is common in children aged 2 to 6 and typically shrinks on its own between the ages of 8 to 10. Adenoidal hypertrophy may cause symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, snoring, nosebleeds, and hiccups. It is recommended that parents ensure their child maintains a balanced diet, ensuring adequate protein intake, and avoid exposure to irritants.
