Dear Doctor, My brother son had adenoid, giving spray in night time. Due to child's mental and parent's worries, didi not like to go for surgery. But i also had the same idea not to go for surgery at this 5 years old boy.
Preferring for alternative treatment for adenoid, could u suggest how to cure this adenoid problem of my brother's child by natural way of method by medicine or any physical breathing exercises

1. What was the opinion of Child Specialist [also is immunization schedule complete till date] and ENT Doctor? [any associated enlarged tonsils/ pharyngitis]
2. is he/she a mouth breather?? [since adenoids causes difficult breathing through nose]
3. any change in quality of voice [nasal twang]?
4. any problem of breathing during sleep [sleep apnea]?
5. is child having low grade fever. not gaining weight or chronic anorexia, persistent dry cough [clinically or as questionnaire]


i. Steam Inhalations 3-4 times a day.
ii. Warm salt water gargles. [gargle with honey water]
iii. avoidance of allergens [dust/cold drinks]
iv. diet rich in vitamin C and vitamin E are rich in anti oxidants and thus helps in improvement of Thymus function (associated with Immunity.)

Avoid: Heavy, slimy and acidic food, curd, mustard oil, excess physical exertion, sunlight-dust areas, exposure to strong winds, day sleeping, smoking, Potato, green leafy vegetables. Cold water/food

Give: Old brown rice, soup of moong dal, black grapes, cow’s or goat milk, garlic, lukewarm water to drink, black pepper, dried ginger, honey, mulethi, launga

PS.
1. In kids, adenoids usually begin to shrink after about 5 years of age and often disappear by the teen years. [have a second opinion]
2. Recent large study showed, by laboratory tests and follow-up examinations, that children who have their tonsils and adenoids removed suffer no loss whatsoever in their future immunity to disease.
3. since he/she is a kid thus may not be comfortable with Ayurveda Breathing and Yoga Techniques, please contact your Attending Physician regarding simple breathing exercises at his/her age.
4. As the Age is above 3 years you can contact Ayurveda Physician there or an Ayurveda Hospital for “SUVARNPRASHAN” [64 drops (3 drops daily)] for a period of 21 days. [ stimulate body immune cells and thus protect child from different harmful organisms for a long duration]
