I'm kind of worried about my recent neck x-ray. It showed enlarged adenoids, and I'm wondering if that's something I should be concerned about? I don't really have any symptoms, but I do feel like there's something swollen in my neck. Does this sound like something serious?

ince you are not currently experiencing significant symptoms, it is likely that the enlarged adenoids are not a cause for immediate concern. However, it is still a good idea to discuss your X-ray results with your doctor for further evaluation. They can help determine if any follow-up is needed or if simple measures can manage the condition effectively.
