Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
The adenoid surgery of my daughter has done on 23rd Jan 2016. She is ok but from yersterday she has a running nose problem and nose totaly blocked with mucus. Dr. suggested relent syrup. Please advice much more. Is there any problem in future after adenoid surgery.
dear healthcaremagic patient adenoid surgery done in the past may be the cause if the adenoid gland was incompletely removed and now it has grown back and causing the trouble again. there are other causes like hypertrophy of nasal mucosa,excessive nasal discharge due to allergies, leading to totally blocked nose. A COMPLETE ENT examination will tell the exact cause of nose blockage. relent syrup is very good and give her that plus a steam inhalation for 10 minutes will provide her great relie,atleast twice a day. remember adenoids will completely dissappear by themselves by 12 years of age,and the symptoms will decrease in intensity irresepective of the surgery.till then you have to avoid the triggering factors like allergies and flu or colds. hope this answers your question. dr.mir osman ali
