Detailed explanation-1: -Everyone is born with adenoids and they are biggest when children are around 3 to 5 years old. They start to shrink when children reach around 5 to 8 years of age. They are usually gone altogether by the time children become teenagers.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your child may need this surgery if their adenoids have become swollen or enlarged because of an infection or allergies. An adenoidectomy can help if your child is experiencing breathing problems or frequent ear and sinus infections because of enlarged adenoids.
Detailed explanation-3: -How Are Enlarged Adenoids Treated? If the adenoids are enlarged but are not causing symptoms, no treatment is required. If they are causing symptoms, such as nasal obstruction, snoring, or infection, your doctor may recommend a trial of a medicated nasal spray and/ or removal of the adenoids (adenoidectomy).
