Hello. Adenoid hypertrophy in children is often physiological. When a baby is born, there is lymphoid tissue in the nasopharynx, which proliferates with age. It reached its maximum at the age of 6, and then gradually degenerated. If it affects the whole body health or adjacent organs, it is called adenoidal hypertrophy.
Adenoid hypertrophy can cause other complications, and a few cases of pulmonary heart disease or even acute heart failure occur due to chronic nasal congestion and long-term hypoxia. Long-term adenoid hypertrophy will make children's nose flat, alar dysplasia, eye distance widened, mouth breathing, facial expression dull, showing a special adenoid face. At this time, the child's physical development and intellectual development are greatly affected.
Guiding opinions:
Although children with adenoid hypertrophy are more likely to suffer from sinusitis and otitis media, children's adenoids are also important immune organs, so it is generally recommended that they should not be removed easily before the age of 6. However, if the child's adenoids are diseased and complicated with various diseases, it is necessary to surgically remove them in time. Do they often have a fever after removal? Could it not be completely removed? I suggest you take the baby for a check-up, ok? I wish you the best of health!
