No need for surgery.... With growing age it will disappear... Go for surgery only when breathing difficulty is dere.
Rest continue symptomatic treatment

Please continue the medicines including the nasal spray till his 5th birthday when you get a digital x-ray of his nasopharynx in lateral view with extended neck. The adenoid hypertrophy should have completely regressed by then.
