Understanding Adenoid Problems in Adults

• Adenoid issues can persist due to chronic inflammation or infection.

Review of Current Medications

• Augmentin is an antibiotic; Allegra is an antihistamine. They may not address all causes of adenoid problems.

Further Diagnostic Evaluation

• Consult an ENT specialist for a re-evaluation. Consider nasal endoscopy or imaging to assess adenoid size.

Alternative Treatment Options

• Consider corticosteroids or nasal sprays. Surgery (adenoidectomy) may be needed if medical treatments fail.

When to Seek Specialist Care

• Seek urgent ENT consultation if symptoms worsen or new symptoms develop.

Supportive Care and Symptom Management

• Use saline nasal sprays and maintain hydration for symptom relief.

Summary and Next Steps

• Follow up with a specialist for personalized treatment based on diagnostic findings.
