Suggest Treatment For Frequent Throat Irritations

I have a four year old who frequently clears her throat and complains of "hot throat" although it does go away sometimes within a day. She also frequenly cannot breathe through her nose when this situation arises. She has extra tissue at the back of her throat which a non-medical specialist said may be one of her adenoids.
