[|Human|] Hi, My son is 7 yrs old and standard 2.. he is always having cold & cough with nose flow. he is having major sleep problem, he makes sound while slepping last week I met a child specialist and was told that he struggles for oxygen.. most likely he is having adenoid whats that ? he is restless and am getting complaints from his teachers too.. whats the remedy?
[|AI|]  From your description, it looks like adenoids leading to obstructive sleep apnea. Common in this age group. Check your kids body ass index too. This happens due to enlarged adenoids(a tonsil like gland) obstructing the airway. This causes sleep disturbances at nighttime (snoring) also excessive daytime sleepiness. He will need removal of the adenoid gland following which his symptoms will improve. non-surgical measures may not be much helpful because of his sleep disturbances
