Nasal turbinate hypertrophy, there are different causes, different causes of different treatments, there is no optimal self-healing approach. Nasal turbinate hypertrophy may be due to congenital or acquired structural abnormalities, chronic inflammatory stimulation, drug abuse caused by more difficult to self-cure, if the drug treatment is ineffective, often need surgical treatment.
Nasal turbinate hypertrophy may be due to chronic hypertrophic rhinitis caused by capillary dilatation, congenital or acquired septal deviation, long-term use of decongestants. Due to the long-term adaptation of the organism, it is usually difficult to recover from turbinate hypertrophy.
Clinically, enlarged turbinate can be treated with medication first, applying glucocorticoid drugs such as dexamethasone or mometasone furoate nasal spray to inhibit local inflammation in the nasal cavity, so that the enlarged turbinate will decrease in size due to the elimination of inflammation, but the efficacy of the treatment is usually uncertain.
Effective treatments for enlarged turbinate are surgery for enlarged turbinate, low-temperature plasma ablation, microwave tissue coagulation and other treatments, after which it is necessary to prevent nasal inflammation leading to secondary hypertrophy of the turbinate.
It is recommended that patients go to the hospital, under the guidance of the doctor for treatment, do not expect self-cure, so as not to cause the deterioration of the disease.
