What:

"He explains the adenoid is like a third tonsil. Most of us know, the two tonsils are located at the back of the throat, the adenoid is located at the back of the nose. So when the adenoid is enlarged, because of it's location, it can block or obstruct the airway behind the nose causing breathing problems and subsequently sleeping problems in kids."
