Nasal polyps (NP)

What is nasal polyps?

Nasal polyps are benign inflammatory and hyperplastic sinonasal mucosal outgrowths. The most prevalent incidence is in people with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). As a result, when describing nasal polyps, the phrase chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis is commonly applied. 

Polyposis is a late-stage sign of uncontrolled allergies, and treating existing polyposis is merely the beginning of the process. Furthermore, the respiratory physician must be aware of features of NP therapy that can have a major influence on chronic obstructive pulmonary illness, particularly asthma.
