Significant adenoid hypertrophy which causes breathing problems and snoring which is persistent needs to be removed. Sometimes steroid nasal sprays can be beneficial and can be tried for few months
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
