Parents are very worried when their children are ill. When the child is young, the adenoids are just in the development stage, and it is easy to appear hypertrophy during the development process, which can easily lead to many problems. Let's see how old the adenoids should be corrected.
How big is the adenoid face to be corrected? 1 children's adenoids can be corrected at the age of 7 ~ 8, and the specific correction time should be judged according to the actual situation of children. Surgical correction can promote the recovery of children's adenoids. After the treatment, the child should follow the doctor's advice, pay attention to diet conditioning, and eat more nutritious food.
Clinically, the facial features of adenoids are: long maxilla, irregular dentition, prominent upper teeth, thick lips and indifferent expression. When a child has an adenoid face due to adenoid hypertrophy, he should be actively operated. The discomfort caused by adenoid hypertrophy will disappear after operation, but the adenoid surface needs to be corrected.
Adenoid face is usually corrected best when the child is 7 ~ 8 years old, but the specific correction time should be judged according to the actual situation of the child. Adenoid face is caused by adenoid hypertrophy and other factors. If the adenoid hypertrophy is serious, it may have a serious impact on children, so surgery is needed to correct it.
Surgical correction can promote the recovery of adenoids in children. After surgical treatment, we should pay attention to nursing according to the doctor's advice, at the same time maintain a reasonable diet, avoid eating irritating food, pay more attention to rest and promote physical recovery.
How much is the adenoid face corrected? The best treatment for adenoidal hypertrophy is between seven and eight years old. The treatment of adenoidal hypertrophy can be divided into drug treatment and surgical treatment. If the child has symptoms such as snoring and waking up, it needs to be judged according to the specific condition. If the condition of adenoidal hypertrophy is serious, it will affect the daily life of children, so seek medical advice in time.
Children's adenoids are often larger than adults, but this is normal. Because adenoids belong to lymphoid organs, lymphoid organs proliferate actively in childhood, but if children's adenoid hypertrophy causes discomfort and affects their lives, then treatment is needed.
Generally speaking, adenoids grow to the maximum at the age of seven to eight, and gradually shrink after the age of eight, until they disappear at the age of 13 to 14. Therefore, the best treatment age for adenoidal hypertrophy is between seven and eight years old. If the child's adenoid hypertrophy has symptoms such as sleeping, snoring, waking up, etc., it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination to determine whether surgery is needed.
Sleeping, snoring, waking up, etc. It may lead to the change of face shape and the formation of adenoid face, thus affecting the patient's head, intellectual development and oxygen supply to the face. Therefore, if the child's adenoids are hypertrophy, it must be treated in time so as not to affect the child's normal life.
1, conservative treatment. This kind of treatment is to strengthen physical fitness and avoid catching a cold. Moreover, to thoroughly treat the primary disease, this treatment scheme can gradually make the adenoids smaller, which can naturally relieve the symptoms and make the symptoms disappear.
2. medication. Many people with adenoid hypertrophy will also have symptoms such as rhinitis or sinusitis. In this case, some drugs that can ventilate the nasal cavity or drugs aimed at these inflammations can be used, and the problem of adenoid hypertrophy can be gradually improved after a period of use.
3. Surgical treatment. If conservative and drug treatment have no effect, then in this case, the adenoids can only be removed by surgery, and tonsillectomy may need to be performed together, depending on the condition of tonsils. Therefore, patients should follow the doctor's advice, otherwise it may lead to a second operation.
Adenoid, also known as pharyngeal tonsil, is a kind of lymphoid tissue, located at the junction of the top wall and the back wall of nasopharynx, between the two pharyngeal recesses. Adenoid diseases mainly include acute adenoiditis and adenoidal hypertrophy. Adenoids have always existed since birth, with the most obvious hyperplasia at the age of 6-7, and the physiological atrophy after 10.
If it cannot be reduced, it will lead to adenoid hypertrophy, causing local or systemic diseases and requiring surgical treatment; In life, if the patient has sleep apnea before the age of 10, if conservative treatment fails, then surgery should be performed as soon as possible.
1. Does adenoidal hypertrophy shrink with age?
Adenoid is the lymphoid tissue of human body. Generally, children begin to develop in six months, reach the peak at the age of six, and then gradually shrink. Asymptomatic adenoidal hypertrophy does not need treatment, and it can gradually shrink with age. Hypertrophic adenoids will oppress the surrounding tissues, and there will be corresponding symptoms of oppression, which is called pathological adenoidal hypertrophy. Pathological hypertrophy is not good and needs active treatment.
2. What tests do you need to do for adenoidal hypertrophy?
Accurate medical history provided by parents and guardians is very important for the diagnosis of adenoidal hypertrophy. Although nasopharyngeal endoscopy is helpful for diagnosis, it is not easy for children to cooperate, and it will also cause nasal mucosa damage in some children, so imaging examination is the most commonly used auxiliary examination.
Usually, nasopharyngeal X-ray lateral film or sagittal CT scanning is used. Pathological hypertrophy can be diagnosed when the ratio of adenoids to nasopharyngeal cavity is greater than 70% or adenoids extend into the posterior nostril. Therefore, ordinary children can make an ordinary nasopharyngeal lateral film, and CT is not recommended. The radiation of CT is far greater than taking an ordinary X-ray.
How old is the adenoid face? Correct it appropriately. 3 1. Treat it conservatively.
Pay attention to nutrition, prevent colds, improve immunity and actively treat primary diseases. With the increase of age, the adenoids gradually shrink, and the condition can be partially or completely relieved.
2. Drug therapy
Mainly take nasal glucocorticoid spray and oral anti-leukotriene drugs. Through drug treatment, nasal ventilation can be improved and some minor symptoms can be alleviated.
3. Surgical therapy
At present, surgical treatment is still the most commonly used method. If conservative treatment fails, it is suggested that adenoid tissue should be surgically removed as soon as possible. Surgery is usually performed simultaneously with tonsillectomy. If the tonsils are small and rarely infected, adenoidectomy can only be used to preserve the tonsils. It needs to be done under general anesthesia. The main surgical methods are adenoidectomy and minimally invasive surgery.
Adenoids grow in the nasopharynx, and children are prone to hypertrophy. Both adenoids and tonsils belong to the lymphatic organs of nasopharynx. In the childhood of 3 -5 years old, the lymphatic organs are in a state of vigorous development, which is easy to proliferate and hypertrophy. The obvious symptoms of adenoidal hypertrophy include nasal congestion, breathing with the mouth open during the day,
Symptoms such as mouth breathing and snoring at night. After long-term oral breathing, children will have maxillary deformity, prominent maxillary teeth, high arch of hard palate, vigorous development of facial bones and jaws, and form a typical adenoid face. It will also affect the function of the eustachian tube, and the blockage of the pharyngeal opening of the eustachian tube will lead to secretory otitis media and hearing loss.
Prevent adenoidal hypertrophy, pay attention to children's life rules and try to avoid catching a cold. At the same time, we should eat regularly, exercise as much as possible, improve immunity and develop good sleep habits. It is necessary to pay attention to develop good living and eating habits and avoid picky eaters.
Pay attention to exercise, avoid obesity and treat colds as soon as possible. Normal children often have physiological adenoid hypertrophy and pathological adenoid hypertrophy, which are mostly caused by the imperfect development of children's immune system and the stimulation of lymphoid tissue after infection.
Adenoid hypertrophy. Treatment usually includes three aspects: conservative treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment.
