Prevent infections: Stay as healthy as possible. Regular exercise, adequate sleep and good nutrition go a long way to keep your immune system strong to fight infections. Careful hand-washing techniques and avoid being around people who are sick are helpful as well. If you have recurrent adenoid issues, see your doctor as it may be time to have them removed.
