What are Adenoids?
Adenoids are a mass of lymphoid tissue located behind the nasal cavity. They are part of the body’s immune system. They serve as infection fighters in babies and young children by trapping and filtering bacteria or viruses that enter the body through the nose or mouth.
All infants are born with adenoids and have them through the childhood phase, but they start to shrink by the age of 7 – 8 years as the body develops other ways to fight germs. Most people’s adenoids disappear by adulthood.
Dr. Shree Rao is a reputed Ear Nose & Throat Specialist who uses her expertise and the resources at Dr. Rao’s ENT, the best hospital for adenoids treatment in Hyderabad, to treat adenoids problems in children.
If your child has adenoid related problems, here are some frequently asked questions that Dr. Shree Rao, Ear Surgeon provides answers for.
What are the causes of Enlarged Adenoids?
Dr. Shree Rao, as a specialist in adenoid treatment, explains that repeated viral infections like Epstein-Barr virus, adenovirus, and rhinovirus or bacterial infections such as streptococcal infections cause adenoiditis i.e. inflammation or enlargement of the adenoids. The swelling in the adenoids blocks airways and makes it difficult for children to breathe through the nose. This is mainly because the nasopharynx or upper part
of the throat that lies behind the nose is smaller in children.
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF ADENOIDITIS IN CHILDREN?
Dr. Shree Rao elaborates that the symptoms of Adenoiditis include:
- Obstructive Sleep Apnea: While sleeping, enlarged adenoids may intermittently block the flow of air through the throat. This can cause the child to stop breathing for a few seconds several times each night. Apart from being a health risk, sleep apnea causes sleep disturbances resulting in the child being disoriented on waking up and unable to focus in school.
- Ear Infections (Otitis): In children, enlarged adenoids can block the Eustachian tubes in the ear, and prevent the draining of fluid from the ears into the throat leading to repeated ear infections and associated ear pain.
- Other Symptoms: Chronic or long-term nasal drainage, congestion and sinus infections, glue ear, snoring, bad breath, and dry lips are also observed commonly in children with enlarged adenoids.
Parents can also observe the following:
- The child starting to sound nasal while speaking, as if he or she is talking through the nose
- Complaints of a feeling of soreness or dry throat which arises from the child having to breathe through the mouth and not the nose
- The child finding it eas ier and more comfortable to breathe through the mouth which is because the adenoids block the airways of the nose
- Snoring during sleep time
- Runny nose with green or discoloured mucus
