Suggest Treatment For Adenoid
my daughter is 4 years 11 months. She has edinoids which is in stage 4 and she has tonsils also. She breathes through her mouth all the time and falls sick very often. Our doctor has given some homeo medicine and has told to take for 6 months and then the edinoids will regress. Though I doubt it. Please suggest further course of action

Hi,
Noted the history about your 4 years and 11 month old daughter having mouth breathing and having large adenoid, being treated with Homeopathy medicines.
So much enlarged adenoids create other complications like improper development of the facial structure, teeth development, high arch palate and most important less development mentally and physically too.
Hence take an opinion of an ENT Surgeon for proper evaluation and if the medical treatment for 3 weeks does not resolve the problem go for surgery as this is most important for proper development of the baby.
In further course of time also get the tonsils out if they are suspected to cause similar complications.
Also watch for other parameters of mental and physical growth, take an opinion of a Pediatrician and any medical management if required and also for fitness for surgery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, ENT and General Surgeon
