Introduction: Some time ago, a friend of Xiaobian suddenly found that his child snored at night, originally thought it was not a serious thing, and then went to the hospital to check it out, only to know that his baby had symptoms of glandular hypertrophy. Hearing "glandular hypertrophy" really makes friends worry about their children for a long time, and recently have been considering treatment options for children.
Because the child is still young, just a four-year-old baby girl, so in the treatment method has been entangled for a long time, if it is surgery, it can be cured immediately, but doctors will recommend choosing a conservative treatment plan. For the problem of children's glandular hypertrophy, how should they adopt a conservative treatment approach in their growth process?
Here, we want to understand the problem of glandular hypertrophy in children:
This is a symptom of a relatively high incidence in the children's group, which is importantly related to the problem of the child's physical development, a proliferation in the laryngeal pharynx of the child, after the age of two years will continue to develop proliferation, and between the 2 and 6 years old is the peak of development, and then it will slowly decrease, and after the age of 10, the proliferating adenoids will gradually shrink.
When the adenoids proliferate to a certain extent, they will block the child's airway, resulting in poor breathing during nighttime sleep, snoring, and will also affect the development of the child's face. With the development of adenoids, it will also bring a series of inflammatory problems, affecting the child's hearing development, etc., which has a lot of harm to the child's physical development.
And we should also understand that the adenoidal proliferation of young children, it is a growing process, if surgical resection is done during proliferation, then we can have a significant alleviation effect on the problem of snoring in children. However, this does not have a long-term inhibition effect, and with subsequent proliferation, the problem of snoring in children may also recur.
Conservative treatment is mainly to alleviate and control the problems of breathing difficulties, inflammation, nasal congestion, snoring, etc. in the child's daily life by unclogging the child's nasal cavity and improving breathing, so as to avoid some external stimuli leading to the aggravation of the problem of adenoid proliferation, and finally keep the child's daily life in a normal state.
In the process of conservative treatment, drug treatment is the main way, commonly used will be a variety of anti-allergic drugs, such as mometasone furoate nasal spray, budesonide nasal spray, etc., these are hormone drugs, for the treatment of nasal allergies, inflammation problems. If there is a large amount of secretion in the nasal cavity, excipients are also needed to help clear the respiratory tract.
Through long-term drug use, there is a certain effect of alleviating and controlling the adenoidal hypertrophy of the child, but the problem of conservative treatment is that the daily quantitative use of drugs is required, and the child is still relatively small, and there may be a situation of non-cooperation. Parents need to participate in the treatment of their children, give their children medication on time, and avoid frequent discontinuations during treatment so as not to affect the treatment effect.
In addition to drug treatment, in the daily life of children, it is also necessary to pay attention to various prevention and nursing problems, mainly the prevention of cold and fever diseases, and the problem of inflammation caused by disease infection. At the same time, pay attention to the work of keeping warm, so as to avoid the stimulation of cold air on the respiratory tract, and do a good job of indoor humidification to avoid excessive dry air irritation to the nasal mucosa.
Finally, what parents need to understand is that conservative treatment is still based on control and mitigation after all, for babies with more serious problems, the role that conservative treatment can play may not be obvious, not enough to achieve a good therapeutic effect on children's problems. Therefore, if there is a problem of long-term snoring and repeated inflammation, we will recommend surgery.
Important: Adenoid hypertrophy of the child is a proliferative phenomenon in the development process, and the serious proliferation may affect the child's sleep and breathing, hypoxia, inflammation and hearing. Conservative treatment is mainly based on anti-allergy with drug use, unclogging the nasal cavity to improve breathing, but if the problem is too serious, surgical intervention is still required.
