🔍 Frequently Asked Questions

Children with enlarged tonsils and adenoids may have mouth breathing, loud snoring at night, restless sleep, bedwetting, and bad breath. In some cases, these problems can also lead to irritability, hyperactivity, or poor concentration.

Yes. Poor sleep due to blocked airways can cause tiredness, mood swings, inattention, or hyperactivity. Treating tonsil and adenoid issues helps improve breathing, sleep quality, and the child’s overall well-being.

Hoarseness may be caused by viral infections, acid reflux, vocal cord nodules or polyps, thyroid problems, or excessive voice use. In rare cases, it can be an early sign of throat or vocal cord cancer.

If hoarseness lasts for more than two weeks, it’s important to consult an ENT doctor. Persistent voice changes may indicate vocal cord growths, acid reflux damage, or other conditions that need timely treatment.

Treatment depends on the severity. Tonsil and adenoid problems may need antibiotics or surgery (tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy) in chronic cases. Hoarseness treatment can include voice rest, acid reflux control, speech therapy, or minor surgical procedures.
