Mucolite sr capsule is best! twice daily for 5 days. Do not take otrivin. Use nasoclear which will cleanse the passage only. Though not good relief, it is safe for now. Also use karvol plus steam inhalation capsules and do steam inhale with water everyday.

You can use it 2-3 times for 5 days. That would be enough. Take other symptomatic and preventive measures as usual.

Nasal polyps if they are small can be treated with medicines. If they are big then surgery is the only treatment. Consult an ENT surgeon asap.
