Naveen. After poking around here and there, I think you were on the right track. I think it's inhaled decongestants they have in mind. Thank you.

Naveen Kar Sep 16, 2013:

Traditional Therapy I must add here that it is a "traditional" anti-inflammatory (or anti-swelling) therapy and there must be some traditional therapy like inhalation with decongestants used in this trial. /// IMHO.

Anyhow, if you still think that it should using some drugs, then anti-inflammatory is better because adenoiditis is an inflammation of the adenoid tissue.


Adenoiditis is the inflammation of the adenoid tissue, usually caused by an infection. Adenoiditis is treated using medication (antibiotics and/or steroids) or surgical intervention.

What about anti-inflammatory?

Still, keep in mind that it is a 'traditional therapy'.

inflammation/swelling sometimes there is an imflammation, but there isn't swelling, and v.v. So, anti-swelling - sure.

Judith Hehir (asker) Sep 15, 2013:

Looks more like... anti-inflammatory to me (anti-swelling, so to speak). Any suggestions, Svetlana?

svetlana cosquéric Sep 15, 2013:

Тв. п. so, Naveen is right about the idea. I've got doubts about "decongestants".
P.S. in the text it's Вин. п. , for me it's a mistake.
