The links if any between enlarged adenoids and recurrent ear infections is one that Doctors have argued over for a long time; Doctors know that chronic nasal blockage can contribute to ear infections. However there are no studies to suggest that removing the adenoids in all children who suffer from recurrent ear infections is the right thing to do and will prevent ear infections. Speaking in practical terms most Doctors do agree that removal of the adenoids in children who are prone to constant ear infections may help to reduce the number of ear infections.
