Adenoids and Homeopathy

Have you been given the solution of getting an adenoidectomy for your child’s adenoids? Does it really provide the solution?

Let us first understand what adenoids are? Adenoids are small soft tissues present at the back of the nasal cavity, above the roof of the mouth. Adenoids play an important role in combating infection and supporting the immune system in little kids. As children start to grow their immune system also gets stronger and adenoids begin to shrink and often practically disappear by the teen years.

Adenoids can get enlarged while fighting off bacteria and viruses that enter the body via nose or throat. Adenoids trap the germs and fight them off. In this process the white blood cells aka the immune cells of the body travel through the adenoids to fight off the infection and adenoids get swelled up. They can also get enlarged due to an allergic reaction.
