What exactly is a nasal polyp?

This is a question that many patients often want to ask, why do they still get it after surgery? Will it become cancerous or not?

We start with the causes of nasal polyps, there are many theories but the mainstream believes that it is still related to allergic reactions and chronic inflammation. It can be seen that the comprehensive treatment of nasal polyps is very important, especially the preoperative and postoperative continuous treatment patients should pay special attention to.

For example, if the nasal cavity is not treated after the surgery, repeated inflammatory irritation or allergy symptoms will not be relieved and soon polyps will sprout again.

We have to think like this, fortunately the possibility of cancer is very small.
