Adenoid hypertrophy
Hi
My daughter who is 3.6 years old have chronic cold. continuous cold as a parent I don't have any idea why she is catching cold always and not at all recovering from that even after giving medicines. Doctors are telling cold is normal in children. but in YouTube i happened to see one pead video who is speaking about adenoid hypertrophy and it's symptoms. my daughter is having the same symptoms. she is struggling to breathe, breathing through her mouth, running and blocked nose always and drooling at night and sleep apnea and her mouth is always open. we cut down egg, milk, sweets,nuts but still no cure. our pead advised montair tablets for 30 days initially we saw some improvement but again she started getting the same symptoms. I am worried to see her struggle to sleep and breathe. please assist me.

She needs evaluation. The symptoms are suggestibe of adenoid hypertrophy. She would be getting cold from her environment. But adenoid hypertrophy will be aggravating her symptoms. If she is getting infections (sinusitis) repeatedly it is better to go for surgery.
