Dear Mr. lybrate-user,
ideally you should be asking the question to your doctor who prescribed the treatment. Polyps commonly occur in the nose and are treated with low dose steroid nasal spray (fluticasone) usually for 3- 4 months or longer based on individual patient response. The inhaler is used for treating breathing difficulties in the lungs such as in asthma, copd, etc. Since it is not clear from the information you provided whether you have only polyps or there is lung disease as well...more

Enlarged inferior turbinates are one of the causes for blocking of the nose. A steroid nasal spray helps to a certain extent but the mechanical problem has to be rectified. Turbinectomy (trimming of the turbinates) will help by allowing more air flow inside the nostrils & the blocking will come down considerably. Medication will only work if you have an allergic component. Consult an ent surgeon who will diagnose & treat you accordingly.

Every patient has 3 choices: 1.Allopathy - gives quick results but is not very safe for long term use.
2.Homeopathy- is safe but very slow and in most of cases it can not stop the spread of disease i.e old patches show some recovery but new white patches continue to come even while using the medication.
3.Ayurveda -If one thinks about. It is difficult to find a good Consultant.
There are many queries about differential diagnosis ,causes ,triggers, is it genetic, diet, curable etc.more

Your symptoms are suggestive of allergic rhinitis for which fluticasone spray is very effective and it can be used for longer duration on continuous basis but take treatment only after consulting doctor.

Dear madam, you must realise that medication in your case will definitely be prolonged which will have its own side effects. Today there are many motivational centres for undergoing surgery, and your surgery is not at all life threatening and at the same time necessary.

Your Dr. is right. This is probably allergic cough and cold. In such cases surgery only helps in clearing obstruction and you will need to take medicine to suppress allergy. You are taking right inhaler, continue taking it at least once in the night. Increase your resistance by doing exercise and not by any medicine.
