Homeopathy Treatment For Adenoids
Adenoids are small tissues located at the back of the throat. They are similar to the tonsils, and are located right above them. Your tonsils can be seen if you look at the back of your throat, but the adenoids aren’t directly visible. Both adenoids and tonsils are part of the immune system, which helps to prevent and fight infection in your body. If your child constantly has a blocked nose, breathes from the mouth or snores, chances are there that he/ she might have enlarged adenoids. Adenoid enlargement is a problem affecting children; those in the 3-10 years age group are the most vulnerable.

Benefits of Homeopathy
Homeopathic medicines are a natural and safe alternative to surgery in children with enlarged adenoids. Adenoids, when surgically removed, have the tendency to regrow, it has been noted. Homeopathic medicines, on the other hand, focus on strengthening the child’s immune system. Once the immunity is strong, the child becomes less susceptible to recurrent respiratory infections. Once this key factor leading to enlarged adenoids is treated, the adenoids get the time to shrink and go back to their normal size. Homeopathy treats adenoids in two phases. In the first phase, homeopathic medicines treat the ongoing infection, which is recurrent and generally acute and has caused the condition in the present moment. In the second phase, these medicines build immunity to prevent chronic respiratory infections.
