My 5-year-old just had adenoid surgery and I'm a bit confused do adenoids grow back after removal? I've heard mixed things about whether this is a permanent fix or if they might return over time. Also, how effective is this surgery in the short term versus long term for kids? Really want to understand if this will fully solve their breathing issues or if we might face the same problems again later

It's also possible for your child's adenoids to grow back. It's impossible to remove all traces of the tissue since the adenoids are so far back in your child's nasal passage. If the tissue continues to cause problems, your child may need surgery twice. This is extremely rare.

While exercises or massage can't correct a deviated septum, they may help manage symptoms like nasal congestion and make breathing easier. Surgery (septoplasty) is the only definitive treatment for a deviated septum
