Cause of Adenoids and the Scope of Homeopathic Treatment

Adenoids are located at the back of the nasal cavity.
They protect the body from infection to spread downward to the lungs.
They are present at birth and grow until the child is between the age of 3-5 years.
They shrink around age 7.
At the time of infection the adenoids enlarge and automatically come to normal size when the infection is gone.
Homeopathy is highly effective in cases of Adenoids as it works upon the root cause of the disease and treats the patient on the basis of individualistic, holistic and dynamic approach. Thus Homeopathy treats the patient as a whole.
In cases of adenoids, Homeopathy works by reducing the size of the enlarged lymphoid tissue, thus it also reduces the intensity of pain and difficulty in breathing in children.
Homeopathy is a natural and safer mode of treatment with no side effects.
