First: It may lead to nasal congestion, accompanied by runny nose and nasal speech due to obstructive nasal sounds and other clinical manifestations. Second: It may cause the child to develop secretory otitis media or purulent otitis media, resulting in ear pain and hearing loss among other clinical manifestations.
