Nasal Polyps

Nasal Polyps - Symptoms

The polyps result in fleshy lumps within the sinuses and nasal cavity that may completely obstruct the nasal passage, giving rise to the sensation of nasal obstruction.

Other symptoms include :

  • Decreased sense of smell
  • Complete loss of smell
  • Excess nasal secretions

If the polyps lead to obstruction of the sinuses, it may lead to sinusitis, which is an infection of the sinuses.
