Usually adenoid hypertrophy causes significant nose block, mouth breathing and snoring and sometimes associated obstructive sleep apnea. Recurrent cold usually because of allergy and he needs to be tried using anti allergy medicine for a month before deciding about surgery
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
