Has anyone of you guys here experience swelling of nasal polyps (like the picture shown below). I'm really worried about this that it might get big. I don't wanna do surgery because it's expensive. Any other solution 😟

I'll send it tomorrow. It's night time here already though. Have you experience nasal polyps too?

Have you tried a nasal spray like mometasone.?
You would probably get that from your doctor, but that worked for me.

Do you also have nasal polyps? Is it also big?

The only time that I had a nasal polyp was following my second sinus operation.
As it was within my frontal and ethmoid area I could not see it but the ENT did with his scope.
You can be given steroid type tablets, as I was for a one week course, and I also used that spray that I mentioned.
After one month I had an exam again and the polyp had completely gone.

Did it came back or get big?

No it did not come back. I do not know its size due to its position, couldn't see it.
Have you had this polyp for long...?
Just see your doctor as there are medications which can help.
