From enlarged tonsils to chronic acid reflux to sleep apnea, kids suffer from a variety of ailments that are normally only associated with adults. They require prompt diagnosis and treatment, which may require a visit to a specialist.
In children, their immune system is still developing, so they are more susceptible to infections, leading to ear, nose and throat (ENT) problems.
Children who more prone to ENT conditions include premature infants, kids with asthma, craniofacial disorders, Down syndrome, immune deficiencies and cystic fibrosis.
