How Dangerous Is Adenoiditis In A Toddler?

How dangerous is adenoiditis in a child 2 years of age. My granddaughter has been sleeping almost all day and night for about 4 days now. At the day care she just sleeps with noise all around her. She is on an antibiotic right now but I m concerned about her constant sleepiness.

HI...by what you quote I feel that she might behaving a sleep disordered breathing or upper airway resistance syndrome. Se might get benefited with intranasal steroids for 6-8 weeks. This is a sort of allergy.
