Is tonsillectomy necessary in my healthy 5 yrs old son who has no tonsillar infective episodes till now?
He has the problem of unilateral nasal obstruction and sometimes he snores and bet wets at nights.His daytime activities are good but sometimes i find him being sleepy.There have been no tonsilar infections till now.Does he need a adenotonsillectomy?Plz help.
I am an ear nose and throat surgeon. Obstructive sleep apnea has overtaken recurring tonsillitis as the most common reason for removing a child’s tonsils and adenoids. OSA in children can cause symptoms of poor sleep, inattention in school, bed wetting, headaches, and can aggravate ADD/ADHD. You need to discuss this further with your pediatrician or an ENT if you can see one without a referral.
