What should I do if my child has enlarged nasal turbinates and can’t breathe at night?

The causes of turbinate hypertrophy include systemic factors, local factors and environmental factors. Symptomatic treatment should be carried out according to the causes of the disease, and the symptoms can be relieved by general treatment, medication and surgical treatment. 1. General treatment: keep the environment clean, moist and comfortable, and rinse the nasal cavity with saline to relieve the symptoms. 2. Medication: If acute rhinitis or sinusitis causes turbinate hypertrophy, glucocorticosteroids such as budesonide and fluticasone propionate can be used under medical advice; if the child is allergic rhinitis, allergens should be avoided and antihistamines such as loratadine and cetirizine hydrochloride can be taken as prescribed by the doctor. 3. Surgery: If the child has enlarged turbinate due to turbinate mucosa tumor, firstly, the benign or malignant nature of the tumor should be clarified to determine whether it is surgical treatment or not. If your child has enlarged nasal turbinates, you should consult a doctor in time to clarify the cause of the disease and determine the diagnosis plan to avoid delaying the disease.
