A member asked:
Is there any benefit from using otravin nasal spray and fluticasone to alleviate nasal turbinates hypertrophy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nose: Stay away from the OTC nasal sprays as they are addictive. Fluticasone is fine but takes three weeks to work. You need to look for a cause such as allergies. If none of that helps some people need an office procedure to reduce their size. See an ent and have them check your septum as well
