    Update...So my friends daughter is on this homeopathy treatment for over a year now. The doc has said that he cannot be certain for how long she may require the homeopathy meds as her DD's adenoids trigger anytime she goes off the meds. The meds will have to continue for as long as needed. However, there have been no side effects and her DD is doing well academically and is actively involved in co curricular activities as well. Hope this helps.

    My son also has adenoid problem, did a scan a month ago
    dr told its very much enlarged and advised to opt for surgery
    but some other peadiatric drs that we were consulting advised me to wait till he turns 7 years
    in their opinion, the adneoid can vary in size and shrink during that age
    you need to consult with your pead regarding this

    he has this problem since his birth
    we consulted a ent dr when he was 2 years, and dr advised us this will get improved over years and asked us to wait
    during that time he had snoring and nose block in between
    and he gets cold and cough every now and then
    but managed with medicines

    he is 5 years old now
    recently the breathing difficulty increased and then we did that scan urgently
    and then the ent dr advised for surgery

    as of now we have decided not to do surgery till he is 7 years
    am going back to the ent in india during this summer holidays again for confirmation for 2 more years wait

    between i am doing some changes in his diet which has helped immensely
    drastic cut off in his diary products intake
    only diluted milk every morning
    he is very fond of cheese,yoghurt, butter, spreads and all
    but i have reduced the amount of his intake
    and no milk related food after 5 in the evening

    also i am giving him lemon jiuce everyday with honey
    also make him gargle with salty luke warm water before bed
    and his dinner time is around 7 and no solid food after that
    this has helped him very much and helped in his breathing problem

    i dont know what i wrote above is in any order or prove any useful to you
    typing from office quickly, just wanted to write based on my experince
    i am not sure if this can be applied to any other kid

    My son is also having the same problem. He has been having it for the past 2 years. He is now 3 years old. He has very weak immunity and used to fall sick quite often. Though the doctor here advised that surgery might be required, but asked us to wait for a while. But some other doctors in India said that adenoids will become smaller with age and not to go for surgery till 8 years, unless otherwise it is critical. i also understand that adenoids are natural defense agents and removing them will not guarantee that they will not fall sick.

    I heard that homeopathy has very good treatment for adenoids. I am also going to check it out when I go to India for vacation this time. One of the ILs had a similar case with the kid and had consulted homeo, which gave cure. She had also given the Dr's contacts in Anna nagar, Chennai. I will check and revert. Also came to know that Dr.Nagendra babu in Chromepet, Chennai is also a very good Homeo doctor.

    Meanwhile, redcuing dairy products is good idea. My son's pead also asked me to check what triggers infection in him. The last 6 months...i have not given him curd at all..not even buttermilk. Cheese and other things, he anyways doesn't like. I also stopped grapes completely, as sometimes i felt, the day he has grapes, the next day, symptoms crop up. B'cos of this, the frequency of cold and infections has greatly reduced in the last 6 months.

    Don't worry. Do take minimum 3 opinions before you go for surgery and also try homeopathy while in India. Do take the x-ray reports to the homeo doctor.

    Hi Abinaya,

    Sorry about the late reply. The homeo doctor's number given by another ILite is given below:

    The homeopathy doctor's no is:9840779986 Dr.Muraleedharan, his clinic is in AnnaNagar East.

    Do check it out when you go to chennai and also keep updating on your son's condition, so that it will be helpful to other parents also.
