My borther has breathing problems, and I'm worried.?!


Question: My brother, who is 15 (I myself am 18) had adenoiditis as a child, but since my father wouldn't believe it, my mother never managed to get my brother the surgery he needed to remove his adenoidal tonsils until he was 6 years old, three years after he was diagnosed. This stunted his social and verbal growth a lot, but what I'm worried about it the fact that he can't really breathe thru his nose-does anyone know of any additional treatments? I'm worried about my mouth-breathing little bro.

Have your mother take him to an otolaryngologist. They can do an assessment of his breathing and determine the best course of action.

Try not to worry too much. God has his angels watching your brother.

Go to Doctor. he must have some treatment for your little brother. Don't worry he will be alright.

dear you brother breathing problem is due to adenoid, there is no treatment but surgery.. try to talk to your parents about it or take your brother to hospital alone, and may be after your parents know it from a doctor they will pay for his surgery.
