Adenoid Nasal Polyp Homeopathic treatment


Are you distressed from recurrent blockage of nose with or without discharge, difculty
breathing, and a weakened sense of smell? Most people would blame this on allergies or a
chronic sinus infection. But in some cases, this may be due to Nasal Polyps. Nasal Polyps are
non-cancerous, soft overgrowths that develop within the nose or sinuses. They appear like
grapes and can develop single or in clusters. Nasal Polyps are resultant of an allergy that
weakens the wall of the nasal mucous membrane causing ballooning of this wall followed by
lling of the sac with a liquid. Nasal Polyps may become bulky enough to entirely occlude the
nasal passages, blocking the pathways where the sinuses drain into the nose.
They are a mass of tissue, located in the passage that connects the back of the nasal cavaty
to the throat. Adenoids - which are also called nasopharyngeal tonsils but are separate from
the tonsils in the throat. Although tonsils are visible when the mouth is wide open, adenoids
need a small mirror and a special scope.The main function of adenoids is to produce the
defence cells and ght infections like bacteria and viruses that one breathes in or swallows.
By making antibodies, they help the young child's body ght respiratory tract infections.

Children are born with adenoids which are quite small. Adenoids get less vital as the child
grows older and the body builds other mechanisms to ght germs. It is during the growth
phase that adenoids can potentially cause problems. Both the adenoids and tonsils get
enlarged when they get infected with bacteria. Mostly they return back to their original size
once the infection is over; however, in some cases they tend to remain enlarged when
infections are frequent or chronic.

Causes of nasal polyp


Causes of nasal polyp
Is it true that Enlarged Adenoids cause behavior problems :-

The way in which theAdenoidsare situated, when enlarged can obstruct and block the nasal passage and can interfere with sleep. Hence children who do not get enough
sleep can exhibit behavior problems because they are tired. Common questions that doctors might ask during the evaluation of a child with possible enlargedadenoidsare
how is the Kid doing at school? Is he/she always tired? Is the Kid suffering from behavioral or listening problems? Its worth understanding that enlargedadenoidsdo not
cause ADHD (Attention Decit Hyperactivity Disorder) or other similar conditions. Though, the behavioral symptoms may mimic ADHD, or even worsen the symptoms of an
ADHD child.Adenoid face or facies When the adenoids are enlarged, they can cause nasal obstruction and chronic mouth breathing. This mouth breathing can cause
permanent changes in the facial shape - like elongation of the face and an open-mouthed, slack-jaw appearance.This is called as "adenoid face or facies".

Is there a way to conrm that the adenoids are enlarged ?

As theAdenoidsare situated at the root of the nose, its practically impossible to see them by direct physical examination. So apart from the symptom history, X-Ray is the
best way to access the growth of an EnlargedAdenoid. The X-ray would reveal, whether theAdenoidsare enlarged or not, and most importantly to what extent are they
blocking the nasal passage.

Is there a relationship between large adenoids and ear infections ?

Whether there is any relationship between enlargedadenoidsand recurrent ear infections is debatable question. Its a known fact now that chronic nasal blockage can
contribute to increased rates of ear infections and persistence of uid in the middle ear area, but there are no corroborated studies to support the removal ofadenoidsin all
children with recurrent ear infections. Collection of Ear wax can cause increased ear pressure leading to ear pain or ear aches, leading to a suspicion of ear infection.
