See. Some amount of adenoid enlargement is very common at that age. Important to note that what is the problem. If open mouth and nasal sound is the only problem then try steam inhalation three times a day with some menthol in it. Otrivin nasal drops are also to be used regularly for long. Say 15 .20 days. But if she is having ear infection also, then probably she may require surgery.
