What are Adenoids | Causes | Symptoms [ Is Adenoidectomy Necessary for a Child? ]
#tonsillectomy #adenoidectomy #GVKChaitanyarao
This week's video I want to focus on the topic of Adenoidectomy for children. In this video I am going to touch upon answering the following questions:
👉 Does your child require a Adenoidectomy?
👉 What is an adenoid?
👉 What causes enlarged adenoids?
👉 What are the Symptoms of enlarged adenoids?
👉 What happens if you avoid the advice of an adenoid surgery?
Chapters
0:00 Introduction
0:56 What are Adenoids?
1:43 What causes Adenoids enlargement?
3:00 What are the symptoms of Enlarged Adenoids?
5:28 Is Adenoidectomy necessary for your child?
6:50 Adenoids Grading
8:48 What will happen if you ignore your doctors advise for adenoidectomy?
You may be asking yourself, if you are not familiar, ""What is an adenoid?"".
The adenoid is a single mass of tissue located way in the back of the nose where the nose joins the throat.
The adenoid, also called the pharyngeal tonsil, is part of our immune system. The adenoid is like a germ processing center as it helps our bodies learn to recognize different kinds of germs so that we can fight them better. Sometimes these adenoids can become swollen and enlarged or chronically infected. When this happens, children can have breathing problems, ear infections, chronic nasal drainage, congestion, sinus infections or other complications, which can lead to snoring or more serious conditions such as sleep apnea. The most common reason that children have an Adenoidectomy is to help them breathe and sleep better.
If you have any questions or ideas for future videos please send me a message a let me know. Please make sure to subscribe to my channel and turn on notifications. I will be making content to discuss all things that I treat including nose, sinus, ear and throat.

Really well explained, I feel much better after watching this, both my children had ent surgery this week (7 year old had adenoidactomy and turbinate reduction) (16 year old had turbinate reduction) my youngest had a reaction to the GA and has had an awful week. I started to wonder if it was all worth it for him. I feel very reassured, thank-you. I wish my eldest had been seen earlier. We had been referred to paediatricians previously but was never picked up. It was only when I noted adhd symptoms that I felt were linked to chronic sleep disturbances when he was 14 that I mentioned it to our brilliant family dentist. He referred us to the ENT Consultant. My youngest has had respiratory issues all his life, later diagnosed with a dairy intolerance. I started to feel truly neurotic as every paediatric doctor told me he was fine and was just a mouth breather? As soon as I met the ENT consultant, he diagnosed the issue in both my boys in 5 minutes!!! I’m annoyed with myself for not advocating more for my children. My eldest went from As to Ds and ENT doctor described him as dangerously sleep deprived through sleep apnea! I never sought psychiatric input as my instincts told me it was his sleep issues not adhd. I expect many children have been diagnosed with adhd without ent assessments or sleep studies to rule out a physical cause. Thank-you for explaining the potential consequences of not going the surgeries. I needed to hear this today. I have spent thousands seeing paediatricians and this also made it challenging as we don’t have thousands to spend, I’m truly grateful to our family dentist for taking the time to ask questions and making the referral to ENT. My eldest has also had a brace fitted and some device to move his jaw. Both children snored, talked, shouted in their sleep, on occasion slept walked and have crowded teeth and dry lips. I pray the surgery makes life easier for my boys. 🙏 if you are on the fence, please talk it through with an ENT specialist as I feel my eldest school life and confidence could have been better supported with earlier intervention. 🤍

The best video ever to solidify my decision to get the procedure done on my 5 year old son. Never would I have linked my sons hyperactivity, grumpiness and dry lips to enlarged adenoids. I was very opposed to get his done since the ENT doctor that we have gave me no detailed information like the one I have found in this video. Had I known this I wouldn’t have lost so much time fighting the procedure. The elongated face jammed teeth, gummy smile and especially heart problems was the biggest shocker to me. Thank you for putting me at ease. I know 100 percent now that I made the correct choice to not ignore the doctor’s recommendation.

Sadly, this seems to be lacking in today's era, as the medical profession is increasingly adopting a business-oriented approach at an alarming rate.

What a brilliant explanation Doctor. My son had his Adenoidectomy today at Oxford University Hospital in the UK. For last 4 years ever since we arrived in the UK he kept developing ear infections, otitis media, blocked nose and severe allergic rhinitis. Doctors here gave him Avamys but asked us to monitor. Avamys could only provide temporary relief. So we had his Audiometry test done and XRay where it was found he had eustachian tube stenosis. Poor kid suffered a lot. So the Doctors finally asked us to go for Adenoidectomy. Fingers crossed hope he outgrows all the problems now.

Explained so well and complete information to help so many parents take informed decision. Sir, what to expect post surgery? Are children going to be more vulnerable to infection and is it possible for adenoids to reoccur?
@SinusDoctor1
Жыл бұрын
Thank you. Post adenoidectomy, child will have to use medicines and trace rest as advised. Children will not be susceptible to infections because of adenoidectomy. There is a 5-10% chance for adenoids recurrence. That is why it is necessary to keep allergies under control
Thank you for your detailed explanation. Your guidance has been invaluable as my 8-year-old son prepares for adenoidectomy next week. I was uncertain about proceeding with the surgery, but his severe nocturnal apnea and persistent noisy breathing in the mornings, coupled with recurrent cold and flu episodes despite medications and antibiotics, have led us to this decision. His doctor has advised adenoidectomy as the best solution. Please keep my little son in your thoughts for a smooth procedure and recovery.🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hello again, On the 5th day after my son's adenoidectomy, he still experiences a stuffy nose, nasal congestion, runny nose, and sunken eyes. At night, he suffers from sleep apnea, noisy snoring, and continues to breathe through his mouth. Although he slept comfortably the first night post-surgery, he still feels throat pain. I am concerned that consuming ice cream, though recommended for treatment, may exacerbate his symptoms. Despite offering soft foods like mixed dishes and soup, he refuses to eat as he prefers solid foods like bread and pizza, which are currently restricted. Additionally, his respiratory rate ranges between 9 to 14 breaths per minute. When can I expect improvement in his nighttime breathing, and when can he resume consuming bread and other solid foods?
Excellent explanation! Thank you so much. My 2 year old has swollen adenoids, but the ENT did not recommend removal. I'm keeping a close eye on him because nights are exhausting, but he doesn't get infections or has problems hearing. He is constantly congested. His ped prescribed zyrtec, so we're trying to see if it helps. ENT doc says they should eventually shrink. Let's see what happens!

Hello Dr. Chaitanya Rao, thank you for the wonderful explanation. My 3-year-old son has some symptoms you have mentioned, and two ENT doctors of two hospitals in China suggest my son should have his adenoids removed based on the following: 1. CT-scan and X-ray show his adenoids are in grade 3 (70% blockage). 2. He wakes up 1-3 times a night, but he’s still quite energetic in the day, no daytime fatigue or short attention span. 3. He sometimes breathes through his mouth, and sometimes snores, but not always. 4. He sometimes rubs his nose and sniffs. Can enlarged adenoids cause that or allergy? He is kinda allergic to dust. 5. Nothing wrong with his ears; no ear infection. My questions are 1. “Do you think his symptoms are severe enough to have a removal operation?”. 2. Or should we try medication first and see if there is any improvement, and then decide whether to have an operation later? I trust you and really need your advice. Thank you for your time.

My daughter 3.5years has frequent cold and some times fever from past 3-4 months, whenever we use medication she gets well but in some days again she is feeling sick and this is happening since she goes to school, so when recently went to a Ent specialist doctor found that my daughter has adenoids, so she suggested for a surgery so could you suggest us on this and if have to undergo then will she able to bear the pain and how many days will it takes to recover and any side effects?

Hi, surgery can be done if necessary. If you are in doubt, kindly seek second opinion. Adenoids surgery alone is not very painful, my patients tolerate it well.

Thank you for the informative video Dr. My daughter is 7 years old advised both surgeries. She has had her gall bladder removed at 2 years of age owing to a choledochal cyst surgery, This is scaring my wife to no end thinking that this will be a second surgery and removal of 2 more body parts. Is there a reason to worry here please. Will our daughter be weaker in handling this surgery or in general owing to missing gall bladder?

Hi, your child’s anesthesia doctor will assess her thoroughly and give surgery fitness only if it is safe or else advise you accordingly. Based on what you have mentioned, your child should be able to handle surgery comfortably. All the best.
Dear Dr. Thank you for the wonderful explanation - not everyone can explain so clearly. I have my four years old son scheduled for surgery (adenoids + tonsils + RT insertion). He has all the symptoms you have mentioned. I was very skeptical about taking the decision for going for the surgery although I have consulted with multiple doctors. Based on the symptoms you have shared and the implications for not going for the surgery, now I am convinced that I should get it done as recommended by my sons ENT doctors and the information you have shared. I just want to share the X Ray with you if you can kindly share your email address so you can assess the size of the adenoids. (if possible)

@@SinusDoctor1Thank you Doctor! I have watched a series of video on ENLARGED ADENOIDS but I can say this is the best I have ever watched. Please, can I have your email address sir? I want to share my daughter's X-ray result with you for you to help me assess the degree of her Adenoids enlargement if it requires surgery. Her ENT has given her the first round of treatment but ALL the symptoms came back 3 months after the treatment. Meanwhile, the ENT doctor is currently on vacation but I need to make a decision (for surgery or otherwise) before he resumes sir.
