There is a possibility of recurrence after turbinate hypertrophy surgery. Nasal turbinate hypertrophy is mainly due to the long-term stimulation of chronic rhinitis or allergic rhinitis, which results in the hyperplasia or hypertrophy of the nasal turbinates. Turbinate hypertrophy surgery involves removing part of the turbinate through radiofrequency ablation, microwave therapy, laser therapy, etc. to reduce the size of the enlarged turbinate. However, if chronic rhinitis or allergic rhinitis persists after the turbinate hypertrophy surgery, the mucous membrane of the turbinate may still become enlarged due to inflammatory stimulation, which may lead to the recurrence of turbinate hypertrophy. After surgery, patients should try to protect the nasal mucosa, such as strengthening exercise to reduce recurrent colds, no exposure to pollutants, changing the bad habits of smoking and drinking, and consuming less spicy food, etc., to reduce the possibility of recurrence.
