Adenoids
Adenoids are small lymphatic tissues located at the back of the nasal cavity. They play a role in the immune system, particularly in young children. Enlarged adenoids can cause breathing difficulties, sleep disorders, and recurrent ear infections. Adenoidectomy, the surgical removal of adenoids, is often recommended to alleviate these symptoms.
