Research on children with enlarged tonsils and adenoids: we divide them into two groups. One group gets immediate treatment. The other waits 6 months. Half of the wait-and-see group improves naturally, while the other half doesn't. #Tonsils #Adenoids #ENT #Pediatrics #ChildrensHealth #MedicalResearch #TreatmentOptions #Healthcare #ENTDoctor #KidsHealth | Dr David McIntosh

Developmental pediatricians are seeing kids with ADHD/ASD symptoms but want to rule out ENT issues first. Breathing, sleep, ear problems—are these considered *before* diagnosis? A slow shift is happening towards more comprehensive assessment. #ENT #ADHD #ASD #Pediatrics #Breathing #Sleep #Diagnosis | Dr David McIntosh

Critically reviewing ADHD diagnoses, 25-50% of children may have airway problems. Sleep problems are common. Sleep studies can subtype ADHD. Medication disrupts sleep. Some countries require sleep assessment before ADHD medication. Addressing airway issues can resolve ADHD. #ADHD #SleepProblems #Misdiagnosis #AirwayProblems #PediatricHealth #SleepStudy #ADHDTreatment #ChildHealth #SleepAssessment #AlternativeTreatment | Dr David McIntosh

Does outside air enter the maxillary sinus? Absolutely, but not much. We generate our own gas environment, pushing gas outwards. There can be inward diffusion depending on the pressure gradient. So, the sinuses definitely breathe or ventilate. #MaxillarySinus #SinusHealth #ENT #Sinusitis #NasalHealth #Anatomy #Respiration #MedicalEducation #Healthcare #SinusInfection | Dr David McIntosh
