Need for adenoid surgery
My son 5 years now has always had runny nose which increased in winters and exposure to dust. He sleeps with his mouth open and snores. We have him treatment for allergic rhinitis for almost a year but the problem would reduce a bit...Never go off...And increase on exposure or on stopping the medicines. With recent ENT visit he took an x-ray but adenoids were not clearly seen in the image. He prescribed the same meds and asked to come back after 3 weeks in case the problem does not reduce for a surgery. I want to know if surgery is mandatory or it could be treated with meds?
