Swollen irritated nasal passages/turbinates for 11 weeks now out of the blue. nothing helping. no mucous. nasal and oral steroids, neti-pot no help!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ENT consult: If you have had these nasal issues for the past 11 weeks you will need definitive nasopharyngoscopy ( direct visualization of the sinuses, throat and vocal cords.; 11 weeks is entirely too long. You may want to seek a second opinion with scoping.
