What Can Be Done For Large Bone In One Side Of Nose In Kid?

Hi, my 8 daughter has been having a lot of trouble sleeping, she is finding it very difficult to sleep in her own room and has this need to sleep with me. The issue l face is lack of sleep on my behalf, but most importantly the lack of sleep my daughter is getting. She snores a little, however, l have found out the bone on her right side of her nose is large and she may need surgery when she is 15 years old. I visited a ear, nose, throat specialist and he recommended l remove my daughters tonsils with a success rate of approx 80% as she still has the issue with her nose. I am not too sure what to do, need advise please help

Hello,

There is new devices at the markets to stop snoring. I do not recommend to remove tonsils as there is no problem with them. you need to be patient till your girl reaches 15 years and do the surgery.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
