More and more children snore in daily life. But snoring is not a good thing, especially for children. There is a lot of data indicating that both snoring and non snoring children are in a disadvantaged position in various aspects of growth and development. So how to treat a five-year-old boy who snores while sleeping?
1. If there are foreign objects in the child's nasal cavity causing snoring, or if there is too much secretion in the nasal cavity, it needs to be cleaned. Due to the fragility and vulnerability of children's nasal cavities, cotton swabs can be used for manipulation.
2. If the tonsils become swollen and inflamed, causing snoring, you can take some anti-inflammatory drugs such as amoxicillin under the advice of a doctor to eliminate the inflammation. If repeated verification is not eliminated, tonsillectomy surgery can be performed.
3. If a child is overweight and causes snoring, it is necessary to strengthen exercise, enhance physical fitness, maintain a good body shape, and thus control snoring.
4. Plasma surgery can be performed. This therapy has minimal pain, does not cause severe bleeding, and has a significant effect. The resulting symptoms are basically non-existent, so it is easy for parents and children to accept.
In summary, snoring in five-year-old children must be taken seriously by parents, as it can affect their sleep treatment, growth and development, and even lead to slow and lagging intellectual development. In severe cases, facial deformities or exudative otitis media may occur. Therefore, if parents notice their child snoring, it is best to go to the hospital for diagnosis in a timely manner and receive targeted treatment.
