Steroid nasal spray works great in adenoids.
Please use it for three months continuously at a stretch. If no improvement of symptoms, get a re-evaluation done. Might need surgery if not improving with steroid sprays.

You can attempt conservative line of treatment(intranasal corticosteroid sprays) till his 5th birthday. If it does not regress by then, please have him undergo Coblation assisted Adenoidectomy under GA.
