Nasal Polyps Explained

By Dr. Navaneeth K. Unni•Published on 2026-08-10•Patient Group: Adults

Clinical Overview & Pathophysiology

Nasal polyps make breathing difficult. [Featured Snippet: Nasal polyps are soft, non-cancerous, teardrop-shaped growths on the lining of the nasal passages or sinuses, caused by chronic mucosal inflammation from allergies, asthma, or recurrent infections.] Shrinking them naturally restores airway function.

Key Clinical Facts & Indicators

  • Constant Nasal Block: Sensation of structural blockage inside the nose, not relieved by blowing.
  • Anosmia (Loss of Smell): Loss of smell occurs when polyps block airflow to the olfactory nerves.
  • Chronic Snoring: Heavy snoring and mouth breathing due to restricted nasal airflow.
  • Post-Nasal Drip: Persistent mucus dripping down the throat, causing a dry cough.

Lifestyle & Nutritional Guidelines

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can nasal polyps grow back after surgery?Yes, surgical polypectomy removes the physical growth but does not address the underlying inflammation, leading to a high rate of recurrence.
Q: How does homeopathy shrink polyps?Homeopathy uses constitutional remedies to reduce mucosal swelling and inflammatory tendencies, causing the polyps to shrink naturally over time.
