[|Human|] HiMy duaghter is 3yrs 4 months and has been diagnosed with Adenoids in her nose. She cannot sleep at night due to nose blockage and incase she gets some sleep she snores very heavily followed by sudden stopping of breathing for sometime to resume it again after tosssing on her sides. She had got fever three weeks back whicChatDoctore down after 48 hours by giving CALPOL. She got fever again today and my doctor advised to give MEFTAL-P suspension as calpol was not effective this time. Please suggest what should be done to cure her Adenoid problem as i do not want her to go for any surgery as she is very young.  Thanks Smita
