How To Treat Breathlessness While Suffering From Enlarged Adenoids And Tonsil?

Hello. My son is 5 and has enlarged adenoids and tonsils. He also has mouth breathing and difficulty breathing at night. I m concerned because his adenoids removal is only scheduled for jan 7 but in the meantime I am frantic every night watching him breathe and stop breathing, moving him around to find the best position for him. Why in a case like this wouldn t his ent try to get him in sooner. His office said his schedule is booked.

I hope this helps Regards
