A member asked:

Apart from blocked nose and sneezing, what will happen if the moderate hypertrophy of my inferior turbinates is left untreated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. John Chiu answered

Blocked nose: Enlarged turbinate reduces airflow but may also block sinus drainage making you more prone to get sinusitis. If the nasal opening is less than 50% block, you may or may not need treatment if there are no other complications.
