If your sons problems such as mouth breathing and snoring is severe then surgery is a good option. Coblation assisted adenoid surgery is a latest method of adenoidectomy where under endoscopic vision Adenoid tissue will be removed with coblation tool which is very bloodless. Usually this surgery is safe and complications are rare
