Question
A four-year-old baby consistently has respiratory infection issues, at least once a month. The progression of symptoms usually starts with nasal speech, followed by tonsillitis, and then coughing, which may develop into acute laryngitis or bronchitis. The recovery from coughing is poor, and when the cough improves slightly, yellow mucus becomes more prominent. The interval between infections has changed from once every three months to once every two months, and now even once a month, sometimes even less. Does such a pattern of symptoms meet the criteria for adenoid hypertrophy diagnosis?
