I can understand your concern. Adenoids are lymphoid tissues that are present in the fetus but they shrink and disappear as the child is born and ages.
However, in some cases as in your child's, the adenoids fail to shrink and disappear and they cause troubles as your son is suffering from such as sleep apnea, mouth breathing, malocclusion etc.
The solution to these issues is the removal of adenoids and tonsils if tonsils are constantly swollen by surgical procedure. I advise you that you should visit an ENT specialist for clinical examination and investigations for your son and discuss the option of surgical procedure to remove adenoids.
I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. I wish your son feels better soon.
