On occasion you may also suffer from ringworm of the scalp or some other form of fungus infection.

Tendency to suffer from ear discharge, often yellow (but not always); some difficulty breathing (could be presenting itself just as simple snoring) even after adenoids have been removed.
Nausea and feeling ‘full’; tendency to constipation and haemorrhoids with occasional or frequent colicky pains (this could just have been a characteristic of the past); tongue may be yellow coated and your gums may be sore. Sufferer may dislike hot drinks.
If you are a woman, you may also suffer from delayed periods, often very light.
