You require surgery for removal of the nasal polyps.
Wydolobe will cause only temporary relief and should not be used for more than 3 weeks.
Also it should not be frequently repeated.
Surgery followed by long term steroid nasal douching is the main stay of treatment in your case.

My father 87 year old have been hospitalized in new jersey usa for 43 days now with interstitial lung disease. Principal problem: pneumonia of left lower lobe due to infectious organism active problems: acute calculus cholecystitis interstitial lung disease (hcc) left bundle branch block acute on chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia (hcc) paroxysmal a-fib (hcc) currently on 4 l oxygen nasal cannula patient currently in steroid prednisone 30 mg and mepron and cefepime iv antibiotics. Recent x-ray shows worsening of lung condition all lobe impacted. Following this website I am giving him beryllium and silicea alongside the hospital’s alopathic treatment. I only go to hospital once in the evening, giving him 5 pallets of beryllium 30c and 3 pallets of silicea 30c one hour apart in the evening. I am not sure if I am giving him right amount. Requesting direction on the appropriate doses (also if any other meds and doses are suggested) for the acute stage of ild, again I am only able to go to the hospital once in the evening so only can give homeopathy medicine once a day.

Hello Jaspreet...
There are more than one reasons for lymph nodes swelling...
We first need to find out the reason and then according to the cause can suggest medicine.
If it is because of tuberculosis then there is no use of treatment for cancer and vice versa.

The enlarged lymph node is due to hormonal changes occurring during menstruation, don't worry it's highly unlikely to become cancer. You can get an ultrasound when it is enlarged to rule out any illness.
