Of course, polyps in the nose - it's not tonsillitis and sinusitis. This pathology is not as common, so little about it that is known. Statistics says, suffers from polyps only 4% of the world's population. And more often - men. But still - what is it, and how to deal with them? Let's face it.
So, polyps in the nose and paranasal sinuses - are benign growths on the mucous membrane, gradually grew and provoking problems with nasal breathing. Sporadic polyps resemble pea multiple - a bunch of grapes (and then we are talking about polyposis).

The reasons that polyps emerge in the nose, as a rule, is simple:
- frequent colds;
- rhinitis (different types);
- sinusitis, sinusitis, and other inflammation of the nose;
- a deviated septum;
- stress;
- hypothermia;
- unfavorable heredity.
Diagnoses the presence of polyps ENT spending endoscopic examination of the patient. However, note at this pathology can be independently and on a number of grounds:
- difficulty in nasal breathing;
- problems with the sense of smell;
- runny nose, including purulent;
- constant headaches;
- nocturnal snoring;
- fast and unreasonable fatigue.
Because of polyps in the nose of a person rather quickly developed the habit of mouth breathing, which means it does not cost anything to make tonsillitis, laryngitis, pharyngitis, and even pneumonia. And so all the time. A Reverse air circulation suffer nasal passages, mucus therein will stagnate develop inflammation, sinusitis overcome. Therefore, polyps can not be ignored by them should immediately get rid of.
treatments

On inspection of the complaints are only when the only way to help - surgery. And then the doctors recommend and carry out polipotomiyu.
Methods of performing such an operation, there are several. Polyps are removed:
- special metal loop, which attacks the polyp like a lasso is tightened and cuts neoplasm (minus the method consists in the high probability of severe bleeding frequency and relapses);

- a laser (this method practically has no contraindications and is well tolerated by patients);
- rinosheyverom (or, in other words, mikrodebriderom) - apparatus, dissecting tissue tumors and at the same time the suction of residues (the only drawback of this modern method It is the lack of equipment - not all of the ENT clinic, and there's more clinics can carry out such an operation, which is well-tolerated and reduces the re-occurrence of polyps to minimum).
Any polipotomiya an outpatient, without hospitalization. And the rehabilitation period for such transactions takes place quite easily in most cases. However, after such a surgery (in all its variants) to be a week to give up visits to the baths and saunas, do not take a hot bath.
