What is Adenoidectomy?
Adenoidectomy is a surgical procedure performed to remove swollen or infected adenoid glands located behind the nose. Common in children, it helps relieve nasal blockage, snoring, and repeated ear infections. The surgery is quick, safe, and offers long-term relief from breathing and ENT problems.
Understanding Adenoidectomy
Adenoids are small lymphoid tissues located in the back of the nasal cavity that help fight infections during early childhood. However, when they become chronically enlarged or infected, they can block the airway, cause snoring, mouth breathing, nasal speech, and recurrent ear infections. Adenoidectomy is a minor surgical procedure, usually performed under general anesthesia, to remove the adenoids. Recovery is typically quick, with most patients resuming normal activities within a week.
