Nasal Polyps

Nasal polyps are a noncancerous soft growth on the inner lining of your nose or sinuses. This growth aggregates in the form of grapes on a stem. They are painless in nature. They form due to the chronic inflammation and are related to repeated infections, asthma, allergies or drug sensitivity. . Polyps can block your nasal passage and can lead to breathing issues and in extreme cases loss of smell.
