Adenoiditis is a infection of the adenoids. Since the adenoids are situated in the throat behind the nose, it is not possible to just have a look and pin-point the infection. Adenoiditis symptoms look very similar to a common cold.
- Very stuffy nose.
- Constantly runny nose
- Snoring or difficulty breathing.
- Sleep apnea (to stop breathing while asleep)
- Breathing through the nose.
- Ear problems or ear infections.
- Swollen glands in the neck.
Adenoids can become inflamed due to viral or bacterial infections or constant allergies. Inflammation means the adenoids become swollen. The symptoms gradually becomes worse over 2 to 3 days and should be gone within a week or so. In some cases the swelling goes down by itself but sometimes treatment is needed.
Due to the swelling of the adenoids the Eustachian tube – the tube that connects the nose and middle-ear – becomes blocked. This leads to fluid build-up in the ear which in turn leads to ear infections.
Tonsillitis and infection of the adenoids often go together.
