Experiences with adenoidectomy?


My son might need his adenoids removed due to mouth breathing, can you tell me what to expect? Will he really sound funny when he talks after its done? If so, will he sound funny forever? Please tell me your good and bad experiences.

The younger he is, the less painful it is. It shouldn't make a difference in his voice really, except the first couple of days, only because he may be guarding due to his sore throat. He'll be fine.
