Problem with nose
by Gary_Wong, Sep 20, 2008 04:29PM
Lately I have figured out that there is a lump inside my left nostril. I tried talking to my doctor but he speaks english fairly poorly and have probably mistaken my problem (all he offered me runny nose medications). The bump is fairly big and it is causing me difficulty in breathing through my left nostril. I've been reading about people with cyst and such. Could the bump i have possibly be cyst? If it is is there any over the counter medication that are recommended?

Nasal polyps result from chronic inflammation in the lining of the nose or sinuses. The cause, however, is not clewar but ithas been linked to allergies. Are there other signs r symptoms present? Medications are the most common treatment for small nasal polyps. If you have one or more small polyps, your doctor is likely to prescribe a corticosteroid nasal spray which may relieve inflammation, increase nasal airflow and may help shrink polyps. For larger growths, surgery may be indicated. Polyps have a tendency to recur. It would be best to have it evaluated by a specialist (ENT) for proper management.
