ABSTRACT
Nasal polyps are smooth, rounded, semi-translucent whitish lumps that are composed of hypertrophied, oedematous mucosa and sub mucosa of the nose and paranasal sinuses. Although their aetiology is yet unknown, they have been linked to aspirin sensitivity, cystic fibrosis, infection, allergies, and asthma. Clinical symptoms including nasal blockage, congestion, hyposmia, rhinorrhea, postnasal drip, headaches, and snoring may be reported by patients with nasal polyposis. Homoeopathic drugs can be used to manage and treat nasal polyps and are chosen based on the similarity of their symptoms.
Keywords: Nasal polyps, Homoeopathy, Symptoms, Nose block.
