Could Your Chronic Sinus Miseries by Caused by Nasal Polyps?
If you have chronic sinus problems and infections as well as post nasal drip you know how miserable the deep headaches and pain can be. There are many potential causes of chronic sinusitis, including things like allergies, or even certain types of fungi, but nasal polyps is certainly one of them. These growths in the nasal and sinus cavities, which are typically about the size of a grape, can cause significant blockages, thus causing buildups of bacteria and consequent infection. Although the exact reasons why polyps grow are not known, it seems they are more prone to appear in people who have asthma than in others. Unfortunately if polyps are removed in an operation, about one in every three patients has them grow back again.
