The article considers the factors affecting the physical development of children, identifies the indicators of the physical development of children with chronic nasopharyngeal infection according to the tables of A. V. Mazurin. The article also reflects the following pattern: children with chronic foci of infection (chronic tonsillitis, chronic nasopharyngitis) have changes in physical development indicators (length, body weight), functional indicators (spirometry, dynamometry), which makes it possible to conclude that these foci have direct effects on the physical development of children. Also identified risk factors in children with delayed physical development and chronic nasopharyngeal infection. These
include frequent exacerbations of acute respiratory infections and sore throats, leading to even greater changes in the tissues of the Pirogov-Valdeyer lymphoid ring and the further formation of a chronic focus of infection. Revealed a significant number of disorders of the sexual development of children with chronic tonsillitis compared with the control group.Girls with chronic tonsillitis and boys with chronic nasopharyngitis had the greatest lag in sexual development. In girls, the lag in the formation of WPP was detected more often in 12–13 years, in boys, starting at the age of 14. Consequently, children with chronic nasopharyngeal pathology are among the group at high risk of becoming reproductive health, which requires timely preventive measures.
