Research Interest: Background: Adenoid hypertrophy is a common cause of nasal obstruction, snoring and recurrent upper respiratory issues in children. Conventional management often requires prolonged medication or surgical adenoidectomy. This case report document both clinical improvement and radiological regression of adenoid enlargement following individualized Homoeopathic treatment. Case presentation: A child aged 6 years presented with chronic mouth breathing, nasal blockage, snoring and disturbed sleep. A lateral nasopharyngeal X-ray showed grade 3 adenoid hypertrophy, with significant reduction of the nasopharyngeal airway. Based on the totality of the symptoms and clinical assessment the child was prescribed Silicea 200 weekly one dose bedtime along with Sanguinaria Nitricum 30c, Calcarea iodata 30c, and agraphis nutans 3x in therapeutic doses. Results: Over 8 weeks, the child demonstrated marked improvement- resolution of the mouth breathing, reduction in snoring, improved nasal airflow and better sleep quality. A repeat lateral X-ray showed Significant reduction in adenoid shadow, with restoration of a wide nasopharyngeal airway consistent with Grade 1 (near normal) findings. No adverse events or recurrence were observed during follow-up. Conclusion: This case highlights the potential of individualized Homoeopathic treatment to achieve measurable radiological and symptomatic improvement in adenoid hypertrophy, offering a non-surgical alternative for pediatric patients. Further controlled studies are needed to validate this findings.
