I have large adenoids and when i speak i sound like i have a cold and same when i sing if i have them removed would i sound like i do not have a cold?

Adenoid hypertrophy: If your voice sounds nasal because of your adenoid hypertrophy, then adenoidectomy will make it less nasal. Your ENT will be able to give you a more accurate answer based on your physical exam.
