Snoring is not typical of men, and newborn babies can snore too. There is such a pair of twin patients in the otolaryngology department of Shandong province hospital recently. They snore aloud like their 58-year-old grandmother each time they fall asleep.
Yesterday, reporters saw these 5-year-old twins Liu Jiaxin and Liu Jiayuan in hospital. Their mother Ms. Liu said that she found the children falling asleep early with snoring when they were born two or three months later. "Good sleeping." For her daughter's "sleep", Liu felt easy.
However, as they grew up, the twins snore louder and louder. The older sister even dozes carelessly in class according to her teacher in the kindergarten.
What bothers Ms Liu more is the loud snoring from the twins' room every night. It's so clear and even shocking from the other room. What's more, the children grew differently from before, "the face become very swollen, lips thick, and teeth protruded. We are so worried."
What will happen going like this? April 7, she hurriedly brought the children to Qianfoshan hospital in Shandong province. The doctor asked the sister to take a deep breath and checked whether the nasal cavity was ok. He found that the twins opening their mouths habitually when exhaling. "By further examination, he found the children have tonsils adenoid hypertrophy and need surgery treatment." Wang Qirong, director of the department introduced that they had been having several such patients every month. |
