Many people do not know what glandular hypertrophy means. Simply put, glandular hypertrophy can hinder people's breathing and seriously affect their lives. However, this phenomenon can occur in many people, including many children, which makes mothers very worried and unsure of how to solve it. Now let's learn about what to do if a baby has glandular hypertrophy?
What should I do if my baby's gland is enlarged
1. Conservative treatment. Pay attention to nutrition, prevent colds, improve the body's immunity, and actively treat primary diseases. As age increases, the adenoids will gradually shrink, and the condition may be relieved or symptoms may completely disappear.
2. Medical medication. Some children often have rhinitis and sinusitis, but with appropriate treatment and nasal ventilation, the clinical symptoms can be alleviated.
3. Surgical treatment. If conservative treatment is ineffective, the adenoids should be surgically removed as soon as possible. Surgery is often performed together with tonsillectomy. If the tonsils are small and rarely inflamed, adenoidectomy can be performed alone.
The hazards of adenoids
1. Easy to suffer from tracheitis, adenoid hypertrophy in children can cause nasal congestion, causing nasal mucus to flow back to the throat, stimulating the lower respiratory tract mucosa, often causing intermittent coughing, and easy to develop tracheitis.
2. It is easy to cause children to have low spirits and slow reactions. Long term use of mouth and nose ventilation can lead to head ischemia and hypoxia, resulting in mental fatigue, headaches, dizziness, decreased memory, and slow reactions.
