When a child struggles to breathe comfortably through the nose, sleeps with the mouth open, snores at night, and repeatedly complains of ear pain, it can be worrying for parents.

This was the case of Ms. N.M., an 8-year-old girl, Patient ID 53810, who visited Life Force Homeopathy Thane Branch with her mother on 20 February 2024.

For almost four years, she had been living with chronic nose block, mouth breathing, and loud snoring. Over the last three months, she also developed repeated left ear pain, with 2 to 3 painful episodes that required ibuprofen for relief.

Her ENT specialist had diagnosed enlarged adenoids and suggested surgery. Her parents, however, wanted to explore a non-surgical approach before going ahead with the operation.

Why Her Parents Were Concerned

The child was bright, curious, sincere, and meticulous in her schoolwork. But her breathing discomfort had started affecting her sleep and daily comfort.

Her parents noticed that she often breathed through her mouth, especially at night. Snoring had become regular. The nasal blockage would keep returning, and ear pain episodes had become more frequent.

They had already tried different conventional medicines, including nasal sprays, antibiotics, allergy medicines, and painkillers during acute ear pain. The relief was temporary.

The suggestion of adenoid surgery made the parents look for another option.


What Are Enlarged Adenoids?

Adenoids are small lymphoid tissues located behind the nose. In children, they help support immune defense against infections.

When adenoids become enlarged, they can block the back of the nasal passage and lead to symptoms such as:

  • Chronic nose block
  • Mouth breathing
  • Snoring
  • Disturbed sleep
  • Recurrent ear pain
  • Recurrent colds
  • Reduced nasal airflow
  • Heavy breathing during sleep

In some children, enlarged adenoids may also affect ear ventilation and contribute to repeated ear discomfort.


Symptoms in This Case

At the time of consultation, the child had:

  • Nose block for several years
  • Mouth breathing
  • Loud snoring at night
  • Recurrent left ear pain
  • 2 to 3 ear pain episodes within three months
  • Need for ibuprofen during painful episodes
  • No major history of frequent cold
  • No recurrent sore throat
  • No swallowing difficulty
  • No recurrent fever

The main complaints were related to nasal obstruction, sleep breathing, and ear pain.

Family History

Family history was important in this case.

The child’s mother had a history of allergic rhinitis and tonsillitis. This suggested an allergic or upper respiratory tendency in the family background.

Such details helped the doctors understand the child’s overall susceptibility and plan treatment accordingly.


Case Assessment at Life Force Homeopathy

The Life Force team, under the guidance of Dr. Rajesh Shah, studied the case in detail.

The evaluation included:

  • Duration of enlarged adenoids
  • Pattern of nose block
  • Mouth breathing during day and night
  • Snoring intensity
  • Recurrent ear pain episodes
  • Previous use of nasal sprays and antibiotics
  • Family history of allergic rhinitis and tonsillitis
  • Child’s general health
  • Nature, behaviour, and overall constitution

The aim was to reduce obstruction-related symptoms, improve breathing comfort, and monitor whether surgery could be avoided during treatment.


Homeopathic Treatment Plan

An individualized homeopathic treatment plan was prepared after studying the child’s complete case.

The medicines were dispatched on 23 February 2024.

The treatment focused on:

  • Reducing nasal blockage
  • Improving nasal breathing
  • Reducing snoring
  • Reducing ear pain recurrence
  • Supporting sleep comfort
  • Monitoring mouth breathing
  • Reducing dependency on repeated conventional medicines
  • Regular follow-ups to track response

Adenoid cases should always be monitored carefully. If a child has severe breathing difficulty, repeated ear infections, hearing issues, sleep apnea symptoms, or poor growth, ENT evaluation remains important.


Treatment Journey

First 6 Weeks, Rapid Ear Pain Relief

By 9 April 2024, around six weeks after starting treatment, the parents noticed marked improvement.

The ear pain settled within two days of starting homeopathic medicines. There were no new episodes for around 20 days.

Snoring stopped, and the nose block improved.

This early response gave the parents confidence to continue treatment.


After 3 Months, Breathing Improved

By 1 June 2024, the child had around 60% improvement.

There was no ear pain and no snoring. Nose block had improved well.

Mouth breathing was still present, mainly at night and sometimes during the day, so the treatment was continued.


September 2024, 80% Improvement Maintained

By 7 September 2024, the improvement had reached around 80%.

There was no nose block. She occasionally slept with her mouth open, but the overall breathing pattern was much better.

She had one minor episode of bilateral ear pain 10 days earlier, which settled within two hours after one painkiller. No regular conventional medicines were required.


October 2024, Temporary Setback After Ice Cream

On 19 October 2024, she developed cold and cough after eating ice cream.

There was a temporary return of nose block and snoring. She used Metaspray for two days and a cough suppressant for three days.

The setback was short-lived and did not become severe.


December 2024, Stable Recovery

By 7 December 2024, the child had recovered well from the October episode.

There were no major episodes after that. No nasal spray or conventional medicines were required.

Her condition remained stable, and treatment was stopped after continued improvement.


Final Outcome

With individualized homeopathic treatment and regular follow-ups, the child experienced:

  • Ear pain relief within two days of starting treatment
  • No repeated ear pain episodes during later follow-ups
  • No snoring during most of the treatment period
  • Improved nose block
  • Around 60% improvement by three months
  • Around 80% improvement by September 2024
  • Stable condition by December 2024
  • No regular need for nasal sprays or conventional medicines
  • Surgery was not required during the treatment period

Results may vary depending on adenoid size, duration, allergy tendency, infection frequency, nasal obstruction, ear involvement, sleep symptoms, and individual response.


Doctor’s Insight

In enlarged adenoids, the concern is not only the size of the adenoids. The real impact is seen in the child’s breathing, sleep, snoring, mouth breathing, ear symptoms, and recurrence of acute episodes.

In this case, the child had a long-standing nose block and snoring, but she was not prone to frequent colds, sore throat, fever, or swallowing difficulty. The recurring ear pain had become the more recent concern.

The treatment response was encouraging because ear pain reduced quickly, snoring improved, nose block reduced, and no major episode occurred later.
