If there's is sever snoring and sleep problem better get it operated as removal of adenoid will make him sleep sound and he can grow well also as lots of energy is spent on his breathing. He is underweight also. Operation is safe and there is nothing like he is small. This operation are done by expert people and without any problems.

Hi,
Adenoid tissue is present in every child before 6 years of age. If you don't want to undergo surgical intervention trial of medicines can be given.I have seen good response to medicine in my patients.
