A member asked:
What size are your nasal turbinates supposed to be.. doctor says mines are swollen and i have constant head pressure. but i don't have infections.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You may have sinus : allergies causing the swelling. The better question is why are my turbinates swelling, as the normal state is not swollen and the size varies in normal turbinates, male or female anatomy. So treat whats making them swell. Then you won't have to worry about the size. Find out what you're allergic to, and start feeling better.
