Symptoms Of Polyps In The Nose (Nasal Polyps)

Nasal polyps are painless, noncancerous, and soft growths that occur on the sinus or nasal passage lining. These polyps form with shapes like teardrops. They hang down from the lining of the sinuses or nose like grapes. Polyps occur when there is chronic inflammation of the sinuses or nasal passages. Individuals are unlikely to develop them if they do not have chronic sinus issues. Some of the most common conditions associated with polyps are recurring infections, asthma, drug sensitivities, allergies, and some immune disorders. If the nasal polyps are small, they might be asymptomatic.
