Adenoidectomy
Adenoidectomy
Adenoidectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the adenoids — small glands located at the back of the nasal cavity. It is usually recommended for children who have enlarged adenoids causing breathing problems, frequent ear infections, or nasal blockage.
Reasons for Adenoidectomy:
- Chronic nasal obstruction
- Recurrent ear infections
- Snoring or sleep apnea due to enlarged adenoids
- Persistent sinus infections
Benefits:
- Improves breathing through the nose
- Reduces ear and sinus infections
- Enhances sleep quality and overall health
