Pediatrician,  's  Response
Surgery for removal of adenoids (adenoidectomy) is required only in certain situations like enlargement causing nasal airway obstruction, which can result in obstructive breathing, obstructive sleep apnea symptoms, and chronic mouth breathing (could result in palatal and dental abnormalities), recurrent or persistent otitis media in children aged 3-4 years and older, recurrent and/or chronic sinusitis​.
Medical management includes antibiotics, nasal sprays, decongestants etc.

Consult ENT surgeon who decide whether surgery is required or not.
