Suggest Permanent Cure For Ear Infection Of 4 Year Old
Hi Sri,
My daughter is 4 yrs old now and I've taken her to a ENT specialist, Hyderabad. She had ear infection and doctor told it is because of Adenoids and recommended for a laser surgery. We've already tried with the antibiotics but to some extent there was partial improvement. We are afraid of surgery as she is 4 yrs old. What do you suggest ? We need a permanent cure for this problem.

Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
Commonest cause of enlarged adenoids is allergy.So you need to give her antiallergy medicine like fexofenadine for 3 months and monteleukast for 3 months.Along with that I have seen good results in my patients with ayurvedic medicine like imunocin given over 3months.Take care of water not going in ear.Avoid allergy by good dust control measures like no soft toys,changing bed sheet pillow cover daily,not going out after 9pm,no chips chocolates.
Happy to help you
Best regards
