Conservative treatment of adenoid hypertrophy

Adenoids hypertrophy can be physiological or pathological. If it is physiological, no treatment is required. If it is pathological, appropriate treatment measures need to be taken. If the adenoids hypertrophy is not particularly severe, you can choose conservative treatment for adenoids hypertrophy. If it is severe, surgical treatment is required. Below I will give you a detailed introduction to some relevant treatment methods of Chinese and Western medicine.

1. How does Western medicine treat adenoids hypertrophy?

Western medicine treats adenoids hypertrophy with conservative treatment or surgical treatment. Conservative treatment often involves local application of hormones and anti-allergic drugs, such as Sinaloxaline, budesonide, etc. Long-term use of steroid hormones can cause adverse reactions and obvious side effects. Many hospitals now use various surgeries, such as laser, to perform adenoidectomy. If accompanied by tonsil hypertrophy, it can be performed simultaneously with tonsillectomy. Although surgical treatment has obvious short-term effects, it also has certain risks and there are also complications after surgery. Many children will experience re-enlargement of their adenoids after surgery, and some children will develop low immunity after surgery. For most children, surgery is not necessary. Nowadays, as long as you go to a hospital, they will ask for surgery. Many parents of children are scared and nervous and will also choose surgery. This is extremely wrong.
