polyps
« on: May 02, 2017, 11:30:01 am »
I have one in my right nostril. Been using Flonaise for 2 months or so. Doesn't seem to work. Doesn't bother me to much  i can breathe through one nostril. If it stays the way it is i suppose i'll survive. Looked at youtube videos and all kinds of different advice. Got the tree tea oil smells good but strong. They don't really know what caused them.

sorry to hear that, can you have surgery to correct that, like going to ENT doctor

I think you can dilute it if the scent is too strong.  My wife uses (and promotes/sells) oils and blends from one of the leading essential oil companies.  She swears by them (I do to) and I know that she has had personal experience with using oil to treat her own nasal polyps.

  Stop using Flonase and visit your doctor.

Get it surgically removed so you can stop having to worry about it.

I had an MRI for something else and it showed up on it. Surgery is possible but have heard they come back.
