Hi Dr, my daughter has been diagnosed with inflamed adenoids and the ENT had recommended surgical removal of both the adenoids and tosils. she is 10yrs old. i had also been reading articles on its affecting physical features and it scares me, but at the same time, am also currently reading articles that do not encourage the surgical removal of the adenoids and to look into other more conservative and non-invasive now available treatments. to this, i am also in doubt as to how effective these 'non-invasive' treatments would be, and at the same time, my preferrence would hopefully be not for surgery. Hope Dr could advice me on matters. Am a Malaysian Chinese. Thank You.
