Question 1

Had cmv infection during childhood.hvng sinus,nasal polyp.get sinus infection often.vng small lump behind ear for 3 years.what could be the cause?

Accepted Answer

There are many reasons but none likely related to CMV infection in childhood. Given your problem, you may need  an allergy -immunology evaluation plus a CT sinus scan. ENT intervention may also be needed if anatomic obstruction of the sinus openings is found.

Question 2

One cause? lymph node (all), neck, back & joint pain, cough, wheezing, painful lumps shins under skin, r ear noise, tmj, fatigue, anxiety, nasal polyp

Accepted Answer

You describe multiple signs and symptoms that may or may not be related.  Please see your Physician for examination.  Your Physican may also recommend that you see your Dentist, but I suspect that hour problems are medical, not dental.

Question 3

I'm 36 y/o & have had 4 or 5 inner ear infections this year. my doc has suggested i get grommets. what are the pros & cons. also have nasal polyps with about 5 ops over a 15 year period?

Accepted Answer

you probably meant 'middle ear infections' and Grommet tubes are meant to ventilate /drain the middle ears in case the Eustachian tubes are blocked. You also have nasal polyps that were surgically removed 5 x before, all this points towards chronic inflammation, ? allergic, in your upper airways, kindly see an allergist, if you have access to one, Grommets will just be temporizing, good luck

Hi dr,  having nasal polyps.  did a scan last week doctor told me my nose has blocked from top need steroid spray to get them better.  it starter i always feel water and pressure pain in my ear. and now days dizzy and in balance too. just want to get seco

Accepted Answer

You need to contact your doctor again to check your ear to find out if it may be infected.  I don't think the nasal spray caused the ear problem however.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

If you have head pressure, it would be best for you to consult your doctor. With nasal polyps, chronic sinusitis is likely present as well.

Question 6

What is a nasal polyp?

Accepted Answer

Nasal polyps are soft, painless, noncancerous growths on the lining of your nasal passages or sinuses. They hang down like teardrops or grapes. They result from chronic inflammation due to asthma, recurring infection, allergies, drug sensitivity or certain immune disorders. (Taken from Mayo clinic web site)

Question 7

Can nasal polyp be cured with budesonide nasal spray?

Accepted Answer

Nasal polyps generally do not "go away" when one is put on a nasal steroid such as budesonide.  These medications can help control symptoms of a runny nose, nasal congestion, pressure, etc., but once a polyp is present, the only way it goes away is through surgery.

Question 8

Having asthma ana nasal polyp what is home made tharapy?

Accepted Answer

There is no home remedy for them, if you are also allergic to Aspirin you need to be desensitized for it , if you are not then you need to find an allergist, get tested to determine your triggers and treat your symptoms accordingly, allergy shots may help. But you still need medications to treat the symptoms.

Question 9

Why is it not possible to expel your own nasal polyp? i have a pic of what i blew out,  it looks like one. ent has no clue what it is. scope= clean.

Accepted Answer

It is usually not possible for the polyp to come out since it is attached to the tissue.  However I have heard of this in another patient. What is more likely is that you had expelled a thick pellet of mucus.  However if the thing looked translucent, then you might have blown out a polyp- rare as it may seem.

Question 10

my elder sis died of malignant nasal polyp.wat next step for me?

Accepted Answer

Most of the nose bleeds come from the septum, I would suggest that you ask your doctor to exam your nose to ascertain the source of the bleeding. On many occasions, cauterization of the bleeding point(s) would solve the problem.
